You should not go off an antidepressant with out a plan from your dr, 12 years is way to lonf for you to consider doing this solo, Your dr may have a med that can ease your detoz symptoms.....wild and sudden mood swings sound like they could be manic depressive which sometimes happens from d/c ing these meds,PLease get your drs help,
Just a quick update... I'm finishing up my 2nd week of going off Zoloft and after one brief panic attack and a couple of mild pangs of moodiness and a dash of the blues, I'd have to say it has been pretty uneventful...which is good news!
I went to see my doctor...he really wasn't sure what to tell me. Mental problems aren't really his specialty. He's a general practitioner. But I think a psychologist is probably "too" specialized since they'd have to know your background and such to be able to help?
I'm pretty surprised I havent been hit with waves of panic. Let's hope things keep looking better!
