I have been on 60mg citalopram for about 18 months. I reduced the dose down to 10mg a day for 2 weeks, then I stopped completely. I haven't really noticed any withdrawal symptoms.
Most people need to reduce the dose much more slowly that I did. You could try substituting Prozac for citalopram. It's generally easier to come off.
