Dandy1 Posted June 12, 2023 Share Posted June 12, 2023 I took Celexa for a week because it looked like my blood thinner. Other wise, I wouldn’t have taken it. I took a double dose one in the morning one at night. Twenty mg in the morning 20 mg at night. I couldn’t really think when I was taking it. Dandy1 exCelexa user Link to comment
Moderator Emeritus getofflex Posted June 12, 2023 Moderator Emeritus Share Posted June 12, 2023 (edited) You can just jump off without tapering. The brain becomes dependent on an SSRI drug after a month. You should be fine. Edited June 12, 2023 by getofflex Please do not private message me. Only tag me for urgent questions about tapering and reinstating - thank you. ***Please note this is not medical advice.
