Book excerpt: Everything you need to know to ensure you have a "soft landing" as you come off antidepressants A guide to getting off SSRI antidepressants and starting your drug free life again, from Benjamin Kramer, best-selling author of "Brain Renovation". In this clear and concise guide, Benjamin Kramer gives you an easy to implement blueprint for coming off antidepressants such as SSRIs (Selective Serotonin Re-uptake Inhibitors) using a variety of little-known techniques and tips. With a scientifically-designed tapering plan, including the use of certain other drugs and supplements where required, you can avoid coming in for landing too hard and crashing. Done properly, you CAN have a soft landing off antidepressants. If you are reading this, you are probably taking one of the following drugs and have decided that it is time to slowly start tapering down - Prozac (Fluoxetine) Lexapro (Escitalopram) Zoloft (Sertraline) Effexor (Venlafaxine) Cymbalta (Duloxetine) Or one of the other atypical antidepressents such as mirtazapine (Remeron/Avanza), buspirone (Buspar), tianeptine (Stablon) or moclobemide (Aurorix) In his typical balanced style, Kramer does not tell you whether you should or shouldn't be on antidepressants. This is a decision for you and your doctor. Antidepressants help a lot of people around the world get their life back and regain the ability to enjoy living again. However, if the decision has been made to stop taking antidepressants, this book contains all the information you will need to succeed, including - - Planning ahead to maximize your chances of success - Lifestyle changes that may be required during and after the process of quitting - How to minimize the nasty effects of 'discontinuation syndrome', where your body takes time to adjust to life without the drug in your system - The correct nutrition to rebuild your brain - Recommended supplements to assist the process - Potential short term medication options to manage the acute phase ˃˃˃ Kramer doesn't promise it will be a walk in the park. However what he does make clear is that with a little effort and planning, you can regain your drug free life again.
