Nothing wrong with that.
It sometimes occurs that people will feel a mood lift - or even mania - after discontinuing an antidepressant, particularly with the tricyclics. It is a sort of withdrawal rebound improvement that can last for a few days to a few weeks. However, I would probably be reluctant to start another antidepressant if I were in your situation. I guess it depends on your history.
