I started on citalopram in September 2020 for anxiety/panic. Im on 20mg and have been since November. Apart from the first couple of bad months iv been a hell of a lot better this side of christmas and my anxiety is minimal. However the last month or so iv really noticed the emotional blunting side of things and also feel a bit slow and almost stupid some days and it gets to me. I am debating lowering my dose slowly to either 15 or 10. Just wandering on other peoples opinion of doing this? I dont want to rush off and jump the gun risking the symptoms coming back. Just wandering if dropping down to say 10 and staying on that for a while would help? Thanks in advance
