From 30 to 10mg of Citalopram - is it likely to be a bumpy ride?

Thing is, work is the only time I feel vaguely 'normal' and then only if I'm fully occupied. Anything away from that and the misery/anxiety grows fast. Plus I'm self-employed and no work = no money.

I'm a firm believer in "work to live, not live to work" but I have no choice. I've got my first job in over two months on Saturday and I've no idea when the next one will come along.

Pretty good night's sleep last night; head feels a bit wobbly, like I have a mild form of vertigo but apart from that, okay.

Is this from going down to 20mg, or 10mg?

To 10mg, as per the thread title.

So far, nothing I'd call adverse but a certain muzziness in my head - but that could equally be due to a stiff neck from too much screen time and a crap pillow.

This is day five now, should effects be seen?

Usually, yes. At day 5 plasma levels will have dropped to close to the new level and more than enough to provoke a reaction. You might just be lucky. Not everyone has significant withdrawal effects. 🤞

Thanks for that, it's comforting to know 🙂
