Hi

I've been going through a very bad time during the past 2 months, I was on Citralopram 40mg for the past 12 years but recently they had stopped working and I was diagnosed with OCD, the dr decided to change my medication from Citralopram to Fluoxitine. This past week I've been on 20mg Citralopram & 20mg Fluoxitine but tomorrow I will be dropping my Citralopram all together and just having 20mg of Fluoxitine. I am wondering if anyone else has been through this before and if you had withdrawl from dropping citralopram or does the fluoxitine just replace it? I dont think I can cope with withdrawl symptoms on top of the Fluoxitine side effects
