Quitting Cold Turkey
Depression Support / by aprilgracexd

...See more Hi! I just recently stopped taking Lexapro after being on it for a year and a half. It's day 2 today; yesterday was a little rough. Today seemed to be better but I feel a little shut down right now. There is something in me that's saying "it's just part of the withdrawal" so that's a good thing right?  What's everyone's opinion on stopping an antidepressant cold turkey? Many do NOT advise it because it can cause a relapse in depression, suicidal thoughts, etc. I have read stories where people have done it and are perfectly fine.
