[quote=Anonymous]I have been on and off SSRIs, including Lexapro 10mg, for many years. I had to taper very slowly and still had some unpleasant symptoms (nausea, dizziness). I diluted the pills in water and tapered the dose that way because it was too hard to cut the pills down. I also started taking Fish Oil supplements which I think helped. That said, I just ended up restarting meds again after being off for the better part of the year. There is a seasonal component to my depression (as well as a genetic one) and I just wanted to stop feeling so sad. It is very frustrating to think I might need to be on this for life, but then it is not unlike other conditions (diabetes, hypertension, etc.) in that way. Good luck to you whatever you decide to do![/quote]
