Hey Wolf, i‘m glad you are doing okey! Are you still holding from the 20% Prozac decrease 2 weeks ago? Have you decided on how you will Taper the depakoke? As Prozacs half-life is pretty long, i would suggest waiting a little more before doing any changes 😊 Wish you a refreshing weekend 💪👍

off Stimulants (2000-2013)
off Fluoxetine (2010-2013)
off Lamotrigine (2013-2016)
off Quetiapain (2016-2020)

currently Effexor — 33mg — 13 years (from 300mg) — actively tapering | with clinician

@Steve Yes, I am holding that decrease. Mood is no longer that awesome but not bad either. Yes, I will risk 50% decrease of depakote. Yes, I want to wait at least 2 weeks before making changes to depakote.
