    Side Effects if i Suddenly stop taking Citalopram?

    Hey,

    i have some problems.. by bag was stolen and i had some of my Citalopram in it which means that now am now without Citalopram... i can't get any of them for a week or so from the doctors.. is there anyway i can get an emergancy perscription this weekend?

    or what would happen if i just stopped taking it? i am seriously considering just giving up on it..

    your views please!

    What dose are you on, and how long have you been taking it?

    I'd suggest contacting your out-of-hours GP service and getting an emergency script. Stopping suddenly isn't the best idea, from all that I've read.

    Don't stop it - call the out of hours doc and they will get you some.

    DO NOT JUST STOP TAKING IT!!! It is so bad and any anxiety will come back with avengance!

    Why can you not get any for a week from the doctors? x

    Its really complicated..

    i moved from my mums to warrington from the wirral.. but my doctors are still in the wirral.. as i know them and like them and they understand my current situation. I cant get back to the wirral for a while as i am working 7days a week and havnt got a minute for myself. i dont have a break all week for myself... So i don't know when i can get some.. could i get some from out of hours in warrington do you think?

    You should be able to get them from the out-of-hours in Warrington, I'd imagine.
    Good luck.
