GP started reducing my Citalopram dosage a over a month ago from 40mg to 30mg. At this same time I starting regular exercise and this really helped me feel good and I had no side effects to the reduction except if i did not exercise for a few days. This pattern has continued. All ok days I swam, worked out etc but a complete slump in mood on any day I did not exercise. Is this typical of citalopram reduction or is it more to do with managing my depression? I am shocked as to just how bad i feel if I miss my daily routine.
