Hello lovely People! :D
I'm a newbie to this forum so apologies if I'm repeating a topic (I found some old threads like this but wanted to start a new thread so hope that's OK!)
I have been on citalopram for over a year and it's been AMAZING! My husband called it a "transformation". I am reducing my dosage, possibly with a view to stopping altogether, though not sure yet. My doctor said that as I'm only on 20mg I could drop straight down to 10 rather than tapering and it shouldn't include any side effects. However... four days in I'm feeling headachy, tired and a bit queasy (nothing too bad). I found going on them a bit tough, though not terrible. He was insistent that 20-10 shouldn't be too big a drop, but I'm worried it might be. Am I just being paranoid? Importantly, I emotionally feel absolutely fine, though I know it's early days.
Thank you and have an awesome day! :shades:
