Today, Wednesday January 12, is the day I'd set for being the final day of taking anti-depressants (Sertraline).
I've been reducing the dosage gradually, 50mg at a time, since September 15, from the 200mg a day I'd been on since 2017 to 50mg from December 1. Each reduction was for a six-week period.
I was first prescribed anti-depressants in April of 2017 at the lowest dose, 50mg daily, and that had been increased to the maximum daily dosage of 200mg by the end of 2017.
Not coincidentally, my weight-gain has been commensurate with the use of the drug ever since. I've already noticed I'm finding it easier to moderate my food intake, portion-size, &c., during the last few months of reduced dosage, and regular exercise is becoming, well, regular.
Now, I just need to get a job to generate income so I don't lose my home....
