I have been on Zoloft then Citalopram for about 8 years. 20mg of Citalopram for about 6 of those. About a month ago I decided I felt great and had no need for them anymore. I decided to stop taking them all together cold turkey. I later learned this was not the correct way to do it. Anyways I felt great for the first few weeks with no issues. I then hit rock bottom. I am now concerned this is not anxiety or depression but something else. I have this feeling that I am not in my body and just very out of it. As I am writing this I feel like I am here but not. My brain feels like it is not connected and I am spaced out. I dont feel anxious at all but just that my brain is not working. I am worried it might be cancer or a brain tumor. I decided to go back on the Cit about a week ago and have some good hours and some bad but cant stand this brain fog any longer. Any help or previous experience would be greatly appreciated. Will the Cit kick in sooner then later since I have used it before. Will I be ok?

Anyway, I've now been on them 2 months and back up on top again. I think it was about the same time it took the last time for them work.
They'll kick in soon I expect ...... just keep persevering :-) xx

I can promise you that 3 week ago,I didn't have a clue where my head was at and it was very scary. 5 weeks on my new mess and things are beginning to feel a little better. I don't feel like I'm anywhere close to where I should be but that dizzy,confused,not here feeling is subsiding. I'm hoping this is the start of things getting better.
Please don't worry. Just give your medication time to work and remember that it's always worse before it gets better xxx

You do appear to have stopped too abruptly but that will not have done you any permanent harm.
You WILL get there, you WILL be OK, the medcation worked before and WILL again.
Big hugs

i don't think anybody is disregarding what you are saying bobbee. I just think other people are having a opinion also. Sometimes we don't all agree but that's life xx
