Did you stop taking the antidepressants suddenly, or did your doctor have you come off them slowly?
Either way, it sounds to me like you should visit your doctor and tell them what has been going on. They'll probably want to put you back on your medication. During your visit you should express your concern over not wanting to be on them for your whole life and see what they tell you. If you do need to be on them, it is nothing to be ashamed of, your brain chemistry just needs a little help!
In my opinion, taking a pill once a day and feeling better sounds much better then being off the antidepressant and having your emotions be all over the place.
Best of luck to you, see your doctor asap!
