Been on and off anti depressants for years. Was off them 2 years for ttc and pregnancy and honestly theu were the worst 2 years of my life. I've had cbt and counseling etc but I have a young child and am a single parent so not much time. Taperd off them slowly 6 weeks ago and I've Gone back to them. Intrusive thoughts and crying hysterically isn't going to help me is it? Im terrified of the effect of these medications in the long run as we don't know what they do to our bodies but I've got no choice.
