Dr Mark Horowitz, an Australian primarily based in London, mentioned he “nearly died” coming off antidepressants due to extreme withdrawal results.
When he tried to cease taking antidepressants, after 15 years of use, the insomnia, panic assaults, dizziness and anxiousness felt so insufferable he thought-about suicide.
Then in his early 30s, Horowitz researched his signs on-line and located “hundreds of individuals saying the very same factor as me” on web boards. It led him down a street of analysis with King’s Faculty London, inspecting why so many sufferers battle to stop the medication as soon as their despair resolves.
