Depression Support Group
Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
Came off the anti-depressent Esipram about a week ago. I took half a dose for 10 days to wean myself off. But since then I have been feeling light-headed during the day. At first I put it down to the 45 degree weather, but now that I'm in a cooler location it's still hangin around. Could this be a side effect from coming off the drug? I was on it for 6 months. I don't live near a doctor so you guys are all I have for the time being (I AM in a relationship but NOT pregnant, let's get that straight :P )

ya it probably is...get your blood pressure checked....that may be affected by coming off the drug.

LOL, Jenny, are you sure you are not pregnant? It sounds like side effects, afterall you are changing a habit, but I would follow MsPooky's advice just to be on the safe side, take care, of YOU.

Can you call your doctor? It is not as good as going in, but by all means give it a shot!

My boobs are neither larger or tender. I have no morning sickness and, most importantly, we haven't had sex in three months. Yes I'm sure I'm not pregnant :P

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
