Weaning depression medication

 

Response to comment [from a "Christian"]:  "I have been on depression medication for over 13 years.  I don't like to rely on any medication if I can help it.  I have been off for a week now. And lightheartedness is becoming less and less.  I am wondering if I am on the right track. I am following my medical provider's advice. But it seems there are so many ways to wean from it.  At the beginning, my provider told me that I may have to take it the rest of my life. But my another provider said that is not right. 
I welcome anyone's perspective about this.  Thank you"
