Possible: All changes in use of meds should be carried out with your md's input and guidance. Sudden stopping of antidepressants can cause withdrawal symptoms especially if you are on a high dose. Stopping an antidepressant prematurely may trigger a relapse. Thank you for asking this important question.

It can be: Please d/w your prescribing provider. It is recommended that dose be decreased by 50mg every 4 days - but in reality - dose is often v'ed much faster. Wellbutrin (bupropion) withdrawal symptoms can include fatigue, migraine or other types of headaches, zapped or tingling sensation, indigestion, abdominal cramping, loose bowel movements, worsening depressive sxs, anxiety, hostility, paranoia, & crying spells.
