This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

At this point I'm trying to get off my antidepressant because I think it's suppressing a lot of the mood changes I would have otherwise gotten from starting estrogen. So far it seems like my guess is correct; every time I step down a dose my feelings get stronger, I feel less dissociated, and so forth. It's a double edged sword though. I've had some moments of extreme dysphoria while my brain is getting used to the lower dosage.

Best of luck! A slow tapering of the dosage is definitely best for antidepressants.
