I recently had a breakdown and was prescribed 3 different anti depressants. i stopped the all but now get dizzy when looking up and laying down?

Sudden stopping!: Sudden discontinuation of antidepressants can make you feel dizzy, tingly, and overall not quite right. Most should be tapered. I would recommend being tested for the mthfr genotypes (677 ; 1298). 84% of the us population has a defect in which we can't make our own neurotransmitters like serotonin, nor-epinephrine, and dopamine. This is treated with l-methylfolate, p5p ; active b12!
