""SRIs are some of the most physically addictive drugs in existence. To suddenly stop taking them is to feel so very much worse than you were feeling before you ever considered taking meds. There's a term, "brain shivers." You'll know it if you ever experience it. Mouse and I have kicked opiates and we have kicked SSRIs cold turkey. We'll take the opiate kick."

Well perhaps the first PDoc i ever saw in 94' should have scripted me Opi's instead of the cure-all Prozac at that time? would i be a junkie today? who knows, but Prozac was relatively easy to get off-despite the 20kgs of fat i put on:(.
