Yes you can and should come off this medication if it is making you sick. Discuss this with your Psychiatrist to find another medication that works for you. If you are not confident with your Doctor please see another for a second opinion. Meds tend to work better when you also have psychotherapy. Please see a Clinical Psychologist with expertise in multiple types of psychotherapy.
