We are making progress in educating doctors about antidepressant withdrawal. In September 2020, the Royal College of Psychiatrists created a leaflet that for the first time describes the tapering processes in detail for prescribers. Anyone may download this leaflet to show it to a prescriber. Stopping Antidepressants

 











 
 
 

Comments

IF YOU ARE ON MEDICATION PLEASE DON'T EVER STOP YOUR MEDICATION COLD TURKEY. TALK TO YOUR PRESCRIBER ABOUT GETTING OFF THEM USING A SLOW TAPER. I AM NOT A DOCTOR, PSYCHIATRIST, or TRAINED THERAPIST; THESE ARE THE OPINIONS OF A SURVIVOR.

 

If you or someone you know is in immediate danger, call 911 (or your country's local emergency line) or go to an emergency room.

​

Be Prepared: Explain that it is a psychiatric emergency and ask for someone who is trained to help with one.
