I've been taking 90mg Duloxetine for depression/ anxiety for a year now. Over the last month or so I've been reducing my dose and I have now gone a week without taking any at all.
During my time on the anti-depressants I took MD (of questionable quality) once or twice but experienced little of what I love about it it despite my friends having a decent time on the same batch. After some research I know that this is pretty much standard for anti-depressants and I've avoided it since as I haven't wanted to waste my time/ money.
My question is- Is a week without the meds/ a month reduced likely to be long enough to make taking the MD worthwhile? Apparently this is good quality and it would be a shame to waste it if it's unlikely to work for me tonight.
Having said that, it's been so long and I'm very eager to get on it again, so I may well give it a go anyway unless it's a definite waste of time.
Additional info- The withdrawal symptoms of the duloxetine were seriously unpleasant, nausea, itchiness, dizziness, what can only be described as "brain zaps"- it was no fun at all. But with the exception of some itching they've mostly subsided, could this be a sign that it's finally out of my system and would no longer interact with any recreational substance?
