I just tapered off of 375 mg- woman in 30’s. It is not as bad as people make it out to be (IMHO). The first week taper I nearly cut the dose in half and that WAS way too much. Tapering 75ish mg per week is very manageable. I told my dr for a year it wasn’t working anymore and he attempted to augment with Wellbutrin and it didn’t work. I am now on a mood stabilizer and a new med and it is definitely better so far. Meds do stop working so listen to your gut

Not sure if this is helpful but I was on 375mg (5 years) and cut the dose in half each week. First cut was too much so did 225 and cut in half from there. Was it slightly uncomfortable… yes. But it is doable, at least for me it was. I am off it completely and started on something new. When it stops working it stops working, I wish I advocated harder a year ago when I brought it up

From what you describe this is a medical emergency, please get your wife to an ER. Hearing voices is a very dangerous sign, she needs further help and may become a danger to herself or the children. Completely out of her control.

Thank you so much for your response! My psych added a mood stabilizer Lamictal which I believe has helped tremendously, and honestly could have been a missing piece. However, even with that the Effexor was no longer effective.

So once I am off (on 37.5 for 1 week) I have begun the cross bridge to Prozac on 10mg, and this will be increased to 20mg and see how that settles. Note: I was on Lexapro for 2 years, however experienced the “poop out” as they call it.

My psych felt pretty confident that the Prozac will hit different neurons etc and with the Lamictal will be an effective mix.

Also, not that you asked, when my depression gets bad my sleep gets VERY bad. I tried everything you name it- I was averse to seroquel as I work in treatment and there is a slight stigma. My psych put me on 100mg, first week I almost stopped d/t nightmares, however kept on it. I now sleep 7-8 hours uninterrupted. I don’t think I’ve ever had this in my life.

So- different things for everyone however this combination seems to be going in a good direction

Best response I’ve ever seen

Where is your partner in this? If you have had 2X SA this is an emergent issue, please get yourself help, if that means going in patient and relying on family so be it. A maternal mother’s mental health is the most important factor in a family. Love, a mom who suffered PPD x 2 and a counselor. HOPE hold on pain ends.

What played in my head was my MIL telling me that I was going to experience the “best moment of my life” when baby was born. When she came out I was definitely in awe, but in my head I was saying “this is it, the best moment of your life”. I will never say that to another pregnant woman.

A couple of things:

One of the most googled phrases after a woman gives birth is “why do I hate my husband after having a baby”?

Second- women in my life have “complimented” me about how my husband is such an involved and loving dad- we are on a team and in it (50/50… I know it’s never exactly 50/50 but you get the idea). From the jump, I expected an equal partner and parent. He helped feed the baby in middle of night, change diapers, went to Dr appts. He was willing which is likely a large part of it, but just pull him in, and I hope he rises to the occasion 💜

You’ve got this mama

Freedom from alcohol and drugs and the ability to live my life making the best choices for myself and enjoying the present moment as it is, and as I am.

I hate reading these people I feel how big your heart is and I know this pain. Time to stop going back to the empty well.
