Hi all
I've been on 20mg Citalopram for a year and a half and decided, now I'm done with my CBT, to start to come off. On advice from here I've done this gradually and am currently at 10mg with minimal physical side effects.
However I have become incredibly paranoid, thinking that everyone who acts nice to me at work is 'up to something' and only pretending to be nice to me. I've also caught myself thinking that someone is typing about me purely because I am there and they are typing.
This wasn't in my CBT, aside from when we did 'can we really read minds', so I don't know what to do. Not sure if this is a side effect of discontinuation or whether this is just my natural pysche coming through.
