has anyone had withdrawal symptoms return after not having any for weeks? I had been on celexa for 18 years for severe anxiaty about health concerns. the last year or so did not find the drug was helping and decieded to go off and maybe try something new. I had all the usual withdrawal symptoms at every taper decrease but after 4-5 months finally was feeling well for 2-4 weeks . like my old self from long ago. this past 3 days i have been crying constantly. fears of being sick and overwhelming andb I feel hopless and helpless. Is this a normal expeiriance with the withdrawal? too have setbacks or repeated symptoms
How long have you been feeling this way?
Usually - I was told by Dr....these symptoms do not last longer than 2 weeks.
felt good for 3-4weeks not bad 2-3 days
hi,
I was on citalopram for 10 years.
I gradually stopped it very slowly within 3 years ,without any withdrawl symptoms.
Then ,I was o.k for 4 years ,and sudenly I experienced withdrawl symptoms for 2 months
I was carefull enough not to restart the drug ,and then they stopped.
I am now feeling fine again! !
thanks that is both a bit scary and releiving
