Hi Beck83
I really feel for the horrid place that are in where things are completely our of your control. Your wife really needs to know that going off her medication cold turkey is completely wrong and very dangerous. While you mention that she is back on them now, when they have this stop/stop process to medication, it can do more damage than good as it actually can worsen depression.
While she is back on them now, it will take some time for it to really re-build but should not be as long as before as it is already in her system. In saying that, what made her give it up? Do you feel that perhaps it was not quite right? May have needed changing? Was it this friends idea?
Sounds like there are a number of things at play. Have you been to see her doctor or would she consider going back for a review?
