Hello, considering stopping my long term (18 year long) use of SSRIs for depression. I feel bad most of the time now so am not sure what good it is doing, if any. I tried increasing the dose and became suicidal so thats not an option. I tried another SSRI briefly and put on 10kg so that is also not an option.
I feel like my personality has changed over the time I have been using it, I very seldom feel joy and I miss this. My life has become very small. Has anyone done this and have any advice on their experience? I feel I have to at least try it. At the time I was diagnosed it was for clinical depression but my most prevalent symptom day to day is anxiety.
