For those that don't remember, or never knew, I came to this forum convinced a lot of the issues in my marriage were due to the SSRIs my wife was taking. When BD happened, even though I had read MWD's books, online articles and watched her videos, it was an Internet search on SSRIs and divorce that brought me to a thread related to that subject on this forum.
The update is that my wife is off of the SSRIs. It was a long, difficult journey for her, including a trip to the ER and an overnight stay in a hospital to rule out a stroke or aneurysm. She ended up having to continue to cut the doses until she was merely micro dosing, and slowly decreasing the frequency. A Netflix documentary on the subject showed another longtime SSRI user having to do the same. By the way, she came to the decision to get off of them on her own. I never brought it up again after initially mentioning it shortly after BD.
It's funny, but her old self is back. She teared up at a show we were watching yesterday (Separated At Birth). I haven't seen her have emotions like that in years! It's also brought back her temper, but I'm much better equipped at dealing with that now after working on myself for the last 6 years.
