Has anyone went thru a few years of slow recovery but then had a very fast recover towards the end in the last few months? I have been in withdrawal for 3 years and 8 months after doing a 8 month taper off of 4 drugs. recover has been slow. I have heard a few people say their recovery was very slow until the end and then the last few months was like magic and they fully recovered after years of slow improvement. anyone get this pattern?

Prozac january 2010 to  october 2016 dose started at 10mg and went up to 80mg

welbutrin october 2014 to october 2016 dose up to 400mg

effexor october 2015 to march 2016 150mg

geodon january 2016 to july 2016 80mg

i did a rapid taper off everything in 8 months time span from march 2016 to october 2016

I'm not recovered, but I hear this pattern often in success stories. Ones off the top of my head- Judith, Undiagnosed1, drug free prof's daughter. If you plow through the success stories, I'm sure you'll find more. 

3/21/19 started Bupropion XL 150 mg

3/21/19 started Risperidone 2mg

7/7/19 start Abilify half dose 5 mg. discontinue Risperidone

7/9/19 full dose Abilify 10 mg

7/29/19 discontinued Abilify due to panicky side effects

8/2/19 Began Latuda 20 mg

8/5/19 discontinued Latuda due to similar side effects 

8/10/19 discontinued Bupropion after realizing it was causing the insomnia

From 8/10/19 no drugs whatsoever

Currently taking vitamin C, D, E, a probiotic and fish oil.
