@kchastain, have you resumed taking your medication? I hope that you are feeling better. Please let me know how you are doing.

May I ask why you skipped 3 or 4 days? Were you wanting to stop taking the medication or had you simply forgotten to take it?

I also under went full gadtric bypass 21 years ago., and i am unable to absorb and metabolize meds normally . feel like im floundering, as i,am having trouble getting into behavioral med clinics etc to monitor and or evaluate for a different antidepressant. Thank you for reaching out
