Hello
I wrote a while back about starting Celexa and feeling rotten. I was and am on 10 mg and I felt SO TIRED all the time that it hindered my life. I was having anxiety attacks again, which I take Xanax for and have not had in years. I also now have sexual problems and I just feel like I am in a stupor all the time. I have decided to get off this stuff. Been on 4 weeks at 10 mg. I plan to cut to 5 mg tonight and take 5mg for 2 weeks or so then stop. Does that seem logical or will I get all shocky and sick? I recall being on Paxil for a few days and stopping and getting the oddest shocks running through my body. They were so unnerving! Anyway, I can't really think of any other way to go off unless I do 10mg, then 5mg ever other night for a while then do 5mg a night and off. Anyone have problems getting off the drug and what is the best way to do it? My doctir said to just stop. I think not. Been there, done that and I won't put myself through it again.Thanks!
Cassie
