can you tell a diff if you DONT take your antidepressant for a day?

Answer 1

Yes, I feel light headed, dizzy, experience lucid dreams, cold sweats, its awful, I feel like I am going to die. I take zoloft now, but the paxil, and effexor were worse. I am a bit short with people too. Its awful.

Answer 2

I take Sertraline and I don't feel any adverse effects if I forget a dose but I try to take it the same time each day so as I don't forget. I know that it takes about 10 - 14 days for the drug to take effect upon your body when you first start taking it so I assume it has to reach a certain level in your bloodstream. Missing a dose must mean that this level drops, perhaps not enough to notice anything but probably not a good idea to do it too often!
