@sheton66 I'm assuming you discussed this with your physician? What did your physician say? I did go off my antidepressant for more than a year. When it was evident that the depression returned I talked with my physician who recommended that I returned to the same antidepressant. It worked very well for me and it still does. I am hoping your mood will improve when you restart an antidepressant. Will you please come back here and let me know?
