Talk w MD & do gradu: You should tell ur M.D. of the plan to discontinue. In 3 weeks the anti-depressant effect should just be taking effect & you might not want to lose it and possibly become symptomatic again. If you r discontinuing you may not have any withdrawal symptoms or they could be mild. You can minimize the possibility by taking one pill every other day for a week and then one pill every 3 days for a week
