Hi,
I have just gone cold turkey on Citalopram after 6 long years. I had a real dive about a month ago, went to see my GP who suggested that the anti depressant wasnt working anymore and that I should stop taking it immediatley and go on to Dosulepin. I stopped taking the Cipramil and almost immediatley got a kidney infection. It seemed at that point I was in too much pain to even worry bout the withdrawel symptoms of coming off the meds. My kidney infection cleared up after a heavy dose of antibiotics. However I feel I am suffering and very lonely. I realy dont want to go back on depressants as I genuinly dont feel depressed. I no in myself though I am having a hard time dealing with what I think is withdrawel. I get terrible night sweats, nightmares, the dizziness is awful, it effects my vision. Im very angry, though I real dont want to be and I dont want to take the Dosulepin. I am not the nice person I used to be, my question is will this get better, will the symptoms go?....Its been three weeks off meds now and whilst im pleased im not on them, I just dont like who I am anymore....any suggestions...thanks...
