    hi peeps :)

    hey there..just wnted to introduce myself. I'm Claire and hve suffered anxiety and depression for 3 years now. throughout this time ive been on a few medications (fluoxitine, setraline, citalopram and mirtazipine) from experience citalopram has been by far the best! it really picked up my mood n made life seem bearable again. sertraline caused me to be extremely drowsy to the point i had to give up work and mirtazipine caused me to have awful restless leg syndrome :/ anyway..as my situation stands i was on 40mg of citalopram for the past 18 months and quite frankly am sick of my life and moods being dictated by medicine..therefore i have made the decision to come off all forms of medication by decreasing the dosage over the space of 6 months as recommended by my doctor. so i thought i should join this forum n hopefully get some moral support throughout the next few months from people who may hve already or are experiencing citalopram withdrawal at the the moment thanks for taking the time to read this...hope to hear from a few of u soon xxx

    You are a very brave lady Claire, but it is good that you are withdrawing from medication with the help of your GP.

    I hope we can support you through this.
