Hi,
I can appreciate your concern, but I think it's all about quality of life. I've been on AD's for 12 years now, and I don't ever intend to come off them. I want a life I can enjoy and feel grateful for. That is what they have given me. Without them I barely had a life, and what I did have was painful, like walking through a world littered with broken glass rather than dust particles!
I would never advise anyone else to take my approach, which is that I'm on them for life. I would only suggest you assess your life with and without them and make a decision that feels right for you. St James is quite right, BTW, depression can seriously damage your brain, as can OCD and anxiety.
Best, Caroline
