Do you know much about the research on this phenomenon?
I've been taking Luvox at 50 mg for 7 years for Panic and Agoraphobia and 25 mg for 7 years prior to that for strange somatic symptoms. I'm in the process of raising my dose to 75 mg (and possibly 100 mg)for a relapse I'm going through.
This puts me at about 14 years in total so far. Does this means I have untreatable Major Depression to look forward to because my brain will gradually downregulate my receptors to compensate for over abondance of serotonin produced by the medication? Or in my case would it be a severe case of what I have now? Can this happen at the dosage I'm taking? Has this phenomenon been proven? Pretty scary.
