I realize this is a bona fide question, so feel free to move it. I have been told by one of our very fine mods who I trust that I need to wait 2 weeks off SSRI's before taking AMT. I just wondered what thoughts are when I clarify that I am taking what docs call a "micro" dose of them - to be exact I take 25 mg of Effexor which is short acting and the regular dose is anywhere from low end 75mg -300mg twice daily (I take it once) and 5mg of Prozac and the norm is 20mg daily but this is long acting. In case anyone is curious there is a school of thought that people take way too high doses of SSRI's and that micro doses can be very effective without the side effects. I am very against them so this is the only way I would agree to take them.
So does everyone still think 2 weeks is best? I hate to go that long without the Effexor cuz I notice a bad mood drop even when I go 12 hours past when I am supposed to take it .
