Hi Floatingbridge - thank you so much for taking the time to type all that in reply.
How are you doing now - is the dysphoria still really affecting you? You said that you are off all ssris/snris - does that mean you are off all medication at the moment?
i am interested in the underdosing because that is what I have done for the last few years - tried to keep my dose as low as I posibly can because i am scared of the long term impacts of taking ads. Also I dont seem to do well on higher doses. I get many many side effects - and feel 'over' medicated.
In the past i have done well on this lowish dose but after 'another' failed withdrawal attempt last year - i havent stabilised in quite the same way so im nervous about what Ive done to my brain over the last 12 years (I was originally put on ad's for PND - not history of mental health problems before that.)
Anyway thanks again for replying in so much detail - i really appreciate it.
Im not particularly new here - i read the threads quite a lot but only post once in a while as i tend to terrify myself :-)
Take Care
Kizzie
