going through an awful patch

[digmusic]

recently I am so depressed I have no motivation to do anything, I am skipping classes, eating all the time, I have cuts all over my wrists. I have withdrawn socially so much to the point where I am losing friends. This guy that liked me no longer is interested in me, friends are losing interest, and I can honestly say I am lonelier than I have ever been in my entire life. I got off meds a few weeks ago and I will not go back on them, does anyone know, if it is because of the medication withdrawal, how long it takes for this to pass? I just feel awful and I don't have the energy to get myself out of this lonely hole I have created for myself.

You should not be going off of medication without your doctor's knowledge and assistance. Why are you going off of it? It should be clear to you that you need it.

digmusic - I appreciate that you've made the decision that you don't want to take AD's any longer. However, you might want to consider going back on your Prozac and weaning off slowly. Chances are good that you could wean yourself slowly without the severe depression (depending, of course, on your pre-existing level of depression). Think about it, okay?

digmusic, I think the other posters are right about this. It sounds like you might consider going back on meds.
