Administrator Altostrata Posted October 8, 2012 Administrator Share Posted October 8, 2012 Interesting. Does your doctor know how to gradually taper also?

The topic is here http://survivingantidepressants.org/index.php?/topic/988-recommended-doctors-therapists-or-clinics/ No I don't believe he is very familiar with proper tapering methods. He believes in the Prozac Protocal to help alleviate withdrawal symptoms. He has however seen many folks who have gone off these meds who years later are still suffering some symptoms and is a big believer in these medications having long lasting side withdrawal effects. That is a rarity. Harold R. Jordan, M.D.Harold R. Jordan, M.D. 53 Center St Northampton, MA 01060 Thanks for the link ALto.
