I was hoping to hear a few peoples experience with stopping taking anxiety/depression medication. 

personally I have tried a few times in the past but found myself having intense mood swings and emotions and just starting back up on my medication to combat it. 

My doctor once said to me”you are young and you don’t want to be on this medication forever” so it’s always irking me that I should eventually come off of it but I don’t know when or how.

Another thing, how many people have come off their medication and stayed off?

Any input would be great, thank you :)
