I take 300 mg of bupoprion daily and birth control for my pmdd. how can i safely wean myself off the anti-depressants safely? i'd like to go natural.

See your doctor: It would be best to wean off with medical supervision..Esp with a psychiatrist. Depending on how you react to medication, some people can taper off quickly while others require more time. It would also be good to have monitoring of return of your symptoms and to discuss alternatives with a professional.
