Hi Ariel.
I apologize for my curt tone in my previous post to you. (I think I have the right person).
> the good news was that i never once felt the depression.. dr. though that would come back, too, but, on that count, i think he's wrong.
>
> i lost 7 lbs over 3 days, altho i don't recommend this form of diet, LOL. the irony is that i wanted to lost 5 lbs or so before my child's wedding in a couple weeks.I'm happy things are working out well for you. I'll say a prayer for you that your doctor should forever be proved wrong.
The first 4 months after discontinuing medication are critical. Most relapses occur during this period. Try to identify and reduce your stress and anxiety as much as possible to allow the brain to build a firm foundation to keeping itself working right without medication.
Good luck.
- Scott
