Antidepressants: is there a better way to quit them?
Millions of us take SSRIs, and most can give them up without too much trouble. So why do a minority suffer severe side-effects?
Antidepressants can save lives. At best, they work. At worst, they are a sticking plaster, hopefully enabling people to hold it all together until they get other help in the form of talking therapies. Either way, they are not supposed to be long-term medication. But whether depression is now better diagnosed or we live in sad times, more and more people are taking the pills and the weeks extend into months and years. In some cases, the users find they can’t stop.
