Did you ween off first? Please don’t do this alone.

@tobynshorty oh good idea i was going to cold turkey it

@MommaBear no you can’t do that. Call docs and find out how to ween off. Cold turkey will give you horrible results. I did it once (cold turkey) and it almost hospitalized me.

@MommaBear cold turkey on medications like so is not advisable.. gradual is best unless there is a serious risk to your health.

@tobynshorty being on them might hospitalize me it’s made things so much worse

@MommaBear call your doctor 🤔

@MommaBear @tobynshorty she’s right, you can’t just stop most of those medications for depression cold turkey. Pristiq is a really difficult one to ween off of.
