So I'm about a month off citalopram now :) I came off it because I want to start a family with my new husband. The withdrawal was pretty hellish, lasted about 3 weeks in all and I still feel forgetful and can't concentrate 100% but the physical symptoms have gone and I'm feeling ok. I have to write a whole thesis before May and although I'm feeling the pressure, I'm not feeling overwhelmed. I told my manager at work that I was coming off my meds and although she was concerned she reassured me that she has no worries at all about my ability to continue to perform well. I'm in charge now when i'm with staff more junior to myself which is worrying but I get through it. It was rough but I've done it and although I'm a little shakey I'm managing. Remember people, it's darkest before the dawn. I wasn't sure it I could make it just a few days ago and here I am now. Wishing you all success with whatever you choose to do x
