Hi,
I wondered if anyone could give me some advice.
I'd been taken Citalopram for 3.5 years until the beginning of July where I was having increasing suicidal thoughts and intense mood swings. My dosage was reduced for a week, then I spent a week and a half on 20mg Citalopram and 20mg fluoxetine - it was great. Its been a long time since I'd felt that good. I then was taken off Citalopram completely and left with 20mg of Fluoextine. I've been taken the fluoxetine by itself since 23rd July but I seem to be getting worse.
My mood swings and intense and rapid, I'm self harming, I have almost constant suicidal thoughts, I feel so angry and weepy and I'm having these things pop into my head where I can see myself doing really awful things to myself and it's scary. My anxiety has been incredibly high this week, I have taken Propranolol (40mg) to help calm it.
I don't know whether I need to talk to the doctor about trying something else, to up them to 40mg or to just give them more time.
If anyone has experienced anything similar, I'm open to suggestions before going to the doc on Monday.
Thanks in advance,
