SSRI Discontinuation
Hello, I had been on Nexito 10 mg as prescribed by my psychiatrist for about a year. I decided to quit cold turkey a few days ago (approx. 6 days) and I have been feeling very angry, irritable and anxious as a result. Is this discontinuation or relapse? Furthermore, what are some things I can do to feel better? Will I have to go back on my meds?
