Hi All,

I'm supposed to be seeing a consultant Psychiatrist in 2 weeks because my GP thinks that the 30mg of Citralopram I have been on for 5 months isn't doing it for me.

Although I have felt better I can't seem to get over the last fence, so to speak.

I have great weeks and then not so great weeks when all my symptoms return, uber blips if you like!

Although my anxiety seems to have eased a lot I am still feeling really weird a lot and get DP/DR frequently.

I thing my GP reckons that the Cit is exacerbating this?

My concern is that if I change meds to try something different will I have to wean off the Citralopram and ease into a new med gradually or just stop one and start another?

I don't really like the idea of messing with my brain it concerns me greatly!

Has any had success from swapping meds?

Cheers,

Gary
