Stopping fluoxetine

I would like to stop taking this drug. I have been taking it for 8 months at a dosage of 10mg. I have gained 10 pounds and I have always been very physically active and workout 5 days a week for 1 1/2 hours. I watch my diet closely so I believe this drug is causing my weight gain and it is very upsetting to me. I have a small frame and 10 pounds is a lot of extra weight for me. Could you please tell me the proper way to discontinue this drug or if it is safe to just stop all at once?

Thank you
