I was put on Citalopram pre hyster for perimeno anxiety, went from 10mg to 40mg and it worked quite well, since hyster i've been on HRT and am weaning myself off it - now down to less than 5mg every alternate day but it takes a while to come off it so don't rush it.

It doesn't seem like clio has any bad side effects. Certainly my concoction once I got used to it has helped me a lot.

Of course we worry, I did - I am the World's Worst Worrier
If you take 1 drug at a time you will at least know which is helping/not. Glad there was some improvement as the morning wore on, I'm taking it easy 2-day ..........

Withdrawal can be difficult and awful, but it does pass. Have you taken the AD yet? You may not have any side-effects …….. do you work at weekends?
