I can imagine how difficult it must be for you. I understand that you want to taper down the medicines eventually. It is advisable that you talk to your psychiatrist about this and consult a clinical psychologist to help you out with the same. Depression is treatable with psychotherapy as well. Depending on the issues, you will need to consult a therapist for 10-15 weeks, once a week. session.
Next Steps
Consult your psychiatrist about tapering down the medicines and simultaneously seek therapy from a psychotherapist/counselor.
