I have been on the same snri for fifteen years and have to take it for the rest is f my life. will it continue to work?

Depression: I understand your concern You do not need to take SSRI Medication for rest of your life if you do not have 3 Episodes of Major Depression, even that can change with Therapy by a Psychiatrist, gradual withdrawal of SSRI Medication, Breathing and Music Relaxation. Balanced Diet, Yoga, Meditation, good sleep, Nature walks, daily exercise and Tai Chi will also decrease need for Medication..
