Addiction to Antidepressants

You are addicted to antidepressants if you have a desire to stop using antidepressants but find it difficult to do so. Addiction to antidepressants becomes apparent when you try to reduce your dosage of antidepressants and suffer from symptoms (indicators) of antidepressant withdrawal :

• You are addicted to antidepressants if you have stopped taking antidepressants and then started taking them again soon thereafter because the of adverse physical or emotional indicators of antidepressant withdrawal.
• You are addicted to antidepressants if you have reduced your dose of antidepressants and then resumed the original dose soon thereafter because the of adverse physical or emotional indicators of antidepressant withdrawal.
• You are addicted to antidepressants if you have reduced your dose of antidepressants and then started taking alternative drugs in an attempt to mitigate adverse physical or emotional indicators of antidepressant withdrawal.
