3 Easy Steps To Safely Taper Off Antidepressants

In this video I walk you through the three steps to taper off antidepressants safely and with fewer withdrawal symptoms. Rapid tapers can trigger severe withdrawal, a misdiagnosis of relapse, or—in the worst cases—protracted neurological injury that can last for years. I explain why these problems happen and how to avoid them by learning to read your own withdrawal response, slowing down when you near the lowest doses, and switching to liquid medication so you can make precise reductions. I also show exactly what to ask your doctor and pharmacist for so you can implement this method safely.
