Discussion: Due to my chronic liver disease I have been depressed for a long time and have been using Cipralex for about 3 years. I am afraid to stop.

Cipralex contains substances that inhibit the absorption of the neurotransmitter serotonin and raise its level in the blood. Serotonin has a known effect on mood, depression, and anxiety. Serotonin is mainly produced in the gut in the presence of good bacteria, so a balanced and proper diet significantly impacts our mood. The problem is prolonged use of Cipralex has many side effects, including decreased sexual function. Discontinuation of use may cause side effects; it is advisable to accompany the discontinuation of Cipralex with a balanced diet of unprocessed foods containing dietary fiber and natural probiotics such as goat yogurt. I recommend that you familiarize yourself with the grief model, known as the Kubler-Ross model. Depression is the fourth stage and is present in most chronic patients.
