I was suffering from anxiety and depression around 10 years back. Since then I have been taking trika .0.25 mg tablet one daily. Now I want to stop this tablet. But I am afraid that if I stop it I may have withdrawal symptoms and problem in sleep. Should I make it half tablet and then stop or should I continue to take it for life long. I am afraid that if I stop it I may have problem in good sleep. Please advice if stopping is better or to continue it. Presently I am not facing any problem of sleep or depression.

Definitely. Your doubt is generous. Considering you are taking this for long, you will definitely have withdrawal symptoms. Three things you should consider consult a good psychiatrist who can listen you properly. He will also help you to tapering down your trica. Cognitive behavioural therapy.

Hello Lybrate user medicine is not the only solution, you have to take therapy sessions as well with psychologist. As you said you have been taking medicines since long. Anxiety and depression are the result of stress of some past experience. Cognitive behavioral therapy is very helpful for this condition. Cbt addresses the here and now, and focuses less on the past. For some conditions in some people, other forms of psychotherapy are equally or even more effective. The key is that there is no one size that fits all.
