Yes! If you want to come off antidepressants you must do in a controlled graded, under the guidance of your doctor. It can be a very bad idea to suddenly stop.

As nucleotideboy says, you have to come off of them gradually and you should be fine. If you suddenly stop, it's bad for your whole body in general and you might get a whole multitude of bad symptoms happening.
