is anyone almost recovered on 5mg of cit?
Posted , 4 users are following.
I have been on citalopram for about 3 weeks now. I started at 10mg and toughed it out for a week and then almost stopped it completely due to the horrendous 24\7 side effects until my pharamcist and dr suggested I try 5mg. OMG. This dose is perfect for me. I am almost back to my old self again...I have to say what is helping me the most is CBT weekly and talk therapy on how to manage anxiety. Once I gained control of my thoughts, the meds just kicked it along. Is anoyone taking 5mg? I thought it wasn't a theraputic dose however dr reassured me that he has many many patients on 5mg that are thriving. I was a complete mess 2 weeks ago and thought I would never get throught this.

I'm on 5mg every other day-even less than you- having had a bad experience on first week at 10mg every day. Now 4 weeks in and can report anxiety levels have calmed significantly so it obviously can be a therapeutic dose for people who are extremely sensitive to medication. The only continued side effect is tiredness which I hope goes away although I had fatigue to begin with. Really need more energy although walking really helps.
