quitting antidepressants cold turkey
 

not the best idea

why the hell are you so sad?

send your extras to me

why are you quitting?

Don't worry, antidepressents aren't addictive... you just become physically ill when you stop taking them.

i'm a fucking loser with no life and no future, i just don't see the point in taking pills so i don't feel bad about that. and i just don't like them.

and yeah this is a fucking trip. i feel like i'm hovering two feet above my body and having trouble directing it.

don't try to float out your window :(

not to sound all cheesy, but thinking like that isn't going to do you any good and it's certainly not going to make "quitting" them any easier

if the pills help, then so be it... i can understand why you wouldn't want to take them if they were making you drowsy or making you feel detached, but to just stop taking them because you don't want to be one of "those" people, is silly

i'm not trying to preach to you, or pretend to know what is going on with you, i'm just speaking from experience

yea not a good idea. the way ssri's work, you really should be weened off of them as it can cause some pretty bad side effects.

Sometimes I just want to go back on them just so I can quit them I and have crazy fucking dreams again.

that is just stupid, why would you do it like that

hell yeah. i had them when i started, too

you guys are no fun

I went cold turkey last January. That was a pretty fucked up period of my life, and smoking/drinking alone might not have helped much.

It gets better if you have a PlayStation, though.

take up heavy drinking

lol.

thats not very guidance counselorish

not much of me is

i've had difficulty with that

I quit mine cold turkey and it wasnt THAT bad

whats the best antidepressant to take? i did zoloft and i almost had a panic attack the first night. welbutrin gave me a soar throat.

neopryn, what anti-depressants are you on at the moment? which ones have you tried? do you have anxiety related problems or is it just anhedonia and such?

or which anti-depressants where you taking

were you taking. were

yall need to ditch the anti-depressants and just be depressed as hell like the rest of us
