Re: FORGOT TO TAKE CITALOPRAM FOR FEW DAYS FEEL AWFUL
Mandie,
Sage advice there from Happyone and Koko23cat, and compassionate words from Gareth too.
All I'd add is that the tablets have a 'half life' (like a nuclear isotope) where the, for want of a better expression, residue of prolonged use remains in your system for some time. so missing one day isn't going to create a problem, but missing two might make you feel worse, missing three would definitely be like going cold turkey(not the best phrase coming from someone in Bernard Matthews territory!).
If there are traumas in your life don't be afraid to revert to a slightly higher dosage for a while.
I found using 40mg one day and 30mg the next worked for me for some time, perhaps 10mg and 5mg on alternate days might work for you?
