it will likely be similar to the first two times. but cold turkeying any kind of meds can be harsh on a person. i wouldnt recommend it. but if theres no other options....
with hunger and weight gain and things, there are meds that can make that go away some (adhd stimulant med) and possibly others.

Tapering off gradually is always best. Even a rapid taper, such as 4-8 weeks, is far better than sudden discontinuation.
