Off my SSRI

Posted by Tabitha on October 3, 2009, at 9:59:51

I'm going to try going SSRI-free again. I've tried and failed many times. I just feel so much better physically without it. I'm not really sure it's been helping that much lately anyway. We'll see.

Tabitha seriously important to me what SSRI do you take, what dose, how long. Any antianxiety med with it? And did it work? I have none that work and cant get off the silly low dose of 50mg luvox been on for years with tiny doses of benzos. Thanks Phillipa

I hope it goes well, Tabitha. As my old pdoc would have said, I hope the side effects of not taking it are greater than the side effects of taking it.

Does this mean you're doing well overall?

It was citalopram (generic celexa). I guess I'm doing ok overall. Still kind of work-stressed and under-socialized, which is typical. I notice some improvement in my general undercurrent of desperation lately though. I just feel a bit more solid or something.

So more solid while off it?

I hope you feel better & better with each day.
