In reply to Drug Holiday?, posted by MrTook on May 24, 2010, at 12:01:27
My doctor basically implied to me that I will be on meds for the rest of my life. She said that if I've had several episodes of depression, that there's a ninety something percent chance that I'll get another one. I was not aware of that the probability was so high, but it does make sense. However, I think a tiny percentage of depressives who can become like a super meditative, Nirvana-reaching Zenmaster could stave off depression forever. :)
> My therapist mentioned to me once that he has seen good results from people who take a drug holiday for a couple of weeks to try to regain some efficacy from a drug that has worked for them before. Have any of you had any success with something like this?
