I have been on celexa for about two years, and I recently ran out. So I decided to quit taking them all together. Its need about 6 days. I have had minor head aches, brain zaps, nausea and ocd. I was wondering how much worse its going to get and when with the withdrawal peek?

Hi johnnybravo,I was on 40mg celexa a day for 8 years and I like you ran out.I just decided to quit cold turkey,yes I know they say DO NOT STOP COLD TURKEY but I did..So far I have been off of them for 19 days now and I have experienced several mild withdrawls..Small brain zaps,mood swings and some light headaches..But I keep myself focused on cleaning or positive communication with other people..I do not go by everything that I read on here because everybody is different..Because some suffer severely from coming off of celexa doesn't mean we all will experience the same horrible side effects..Stay positive,stay focused and away from negative people lol ..So far I'm doing OK,yes I have a lil mood swing now and again and maybe a small cry all of a sudden but you can do it...If I can,anyone can..Hang in there,don't go back to taking a pill just to make yourself feel better when you feel that you can't handle what's NATURALLY gonna happen after a sudden stop from celexa..And I'm not here to preach,but it also helps a great deal to pray and ask god to help..Because he will...Take care,hang n there and keep on pushing..You got this ??
