In reply to EMSAM Withdrawal, posted by darcan on June 14, 2006, at 23:47:06
I discontinued EMSAM, also, (cold turkey) after almost 2 months use. No withdrawal that I was aware of. I actually felt better, because its side effects were more bothersome, and those went away, so my focus was on that, as opposed to any other changes there might have been. If there were any - they were not significant enough for me to have taken note of them.
