I want to give some hope for people in recovery after CT with an AD.  I'm about to start my 51st month of w/d from sertraline and Prozac.  It has been an excruciating process.  However I am now able to say that I'm so much better. 

 

Dear @arbor

 

Wonderful news!

 

There is definitely a light at the end of the tunnel! At 64 months out I can soooo identify with how you're feeling now 🥰

 

Onwards and upwards!

 

Kind regards, GH
