harmony22013 Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 When i try to taper off, at about the three month mark the terrible feelings of irrational fear return. i have never made it past this point. Has anyone else experienced this? My diagnosis is bi polar 1, with psychotic features in the distant past. Also, i am on lamictal and 5 mg of lexapro Harmony22013 Link to comment
