New here

Hi

just found this forum. I suffered my first anxiety/depression episode following hysterectomy 5 years ago. I was given hrt and citalopram. I recovered after quite a long time.
I decided to wean myself off both drugs last year and stopped them just after christmas. Unfortunately 3 weeks ago the anxiety feelings started again just like before. I am back on hrt/cit with diazepam for night times.
My god you forget how awful the symptoms are. Mornings are the worst and that feeling of stomach churning that rises to those horrible thoughts. Am having better days but feel very fragile and frightened.
Thanks for reading.
