Pms, or meds?

Question

I recently saw my psychiatrist and I explained my lack of sex drive so she decided we should get me off my antidepressant since my mood stabilizer was at the max dose and working well. Anyways I'm so freaking emotional. My period is due in 5 days. I literally am crying for no reason whatsoever. Should I just chalk it up to my usual pms moodiness?

Answer

Did you wean off the antidepressant slowly or just stop it? I've been working on getting off some of my meds and accidentally took half the dose I was supposed to of one and after 3 days I was crying over everything. I mean, I cried when a client was nice to me at work. I called my doctor thinking I needed to go back up on my dosage and that's when I figured out I took the wrong amount and dropped too quickly and that's why I was such a wreck.
