I'm curious about this, when an AD poops out and I abrupty stop, I never have withdrawal but if I stop taking it while it's working I have had bad withdrawal symptoms. This has been true SSRI's I've used.
I figure when there was no withdrwal the med pooped out long ago.
Sometimes I have stopped taking an AD just to is if it's working and in a couple days if I clearly have withdrwal, the answer was yes it's working.
I'm on Cymbalta and resently I stooped it for 5 days and I didn't have dramatic withdrawal other then vertigo and I can't say the vertigo was withdrwal because it continued weeks after I restarted the cymbalta.
I did read something that said not to take drug holliday with cymbalta but reason wasn't stated.
Is there a reason other then some health risk not to holiday cymbalta?
I do think the wellbutrin is working in combination with my busbar and cymbalta but I don't think it ever worked the way it did the first 6 months I took it, it was miraculos the first 6 months of treatment.
I looked up that link and it didn't seem to get me to the article.
