Yesterday i had a really bad day. But al the support i get here is a good help. Also all the info i got from Caitlin is helpfull. Thank you. I got a phonecall from my daughter and i was happy i could talk to her. She really believes in my process of getting stable. So i could believe again i will get better. I slept 7 h instead of 4h. Feel a bit better today.

Anafranil i don't know the dose i took. And 100mg trazodone. I think i started efexor 112,5mg in 2015

Great, you’re getting there! Seven hours of sleep is almost sleeping through the night. I’m really happy for you. Keep checking in regularly so you can see the overall trend more clearly and make future decisions more easily.

Cymbalta — 15mg(12mg) — 17 Jahre — holding -with clinician - 90 mg – 2021: First tapering attempt.
60 mg – 2023: Second tapering attempt.
With a doctor's supervision—but unfortunately, a doctor who doesn't know how to properly taper off an antidepressant.
