Tiredness after leaving antidepressants

2023-12-31 23:20:26
I was on antidepressants for a few months and after leaving it i am always feeling tired. It feels that my body is active but my brain feels tired. I do feel a good energy and my brain feels good after eating chocolate or anything sweeter in taste. Can u tell me the reason for that?
