Hi 

I had reinstated Celexa 10 mg, 3 times in the past, being off 8-10 months before. 

Usually I was 1-2 years on it, gradually weaning it out, and at 20 mg. 

I did not use any benzo, and my symptoms were minimal for a couple weeks, before fully been stabilized again. 

However from what I am reading here, it seems that I am a minority! 

Any way, this is just my case, and be careful, following the proper advice from the mods. 

Citalopram 20 mg

Mid June 1994- end March 1995 Then tapering 3 months 

Mid August 1995-end August 1996 Tapering 6 months 

Mid January 2000-end September 2001 Tapering 6 months

Mid October 2003-end October 2005 Tapering 7 years. 

More detailed drug history is here - ☼-kostas

Off any drug from October 2012

That would not be too concentrated, lalala, but the homemade liquid might become weak if you kept it for more than a week.

 

If you mix up one 20mg tablet in 40mL of water, it will last you for 3 or 4 doses (probably 3 doses as some will be lost).

thxs Alto I think I will  go back to the  one pill  then...I know its recommended to taper the ssri first,  then I will be so much longer on the klonopin...  which I'm withdrawaing from .

could the celexa cause stomach issues aswell as i made some mistakes? Also possible to taper celexa  at some point  hold and taper K  and hold?

Since you skipped a dose of Celexa and upset your system with that, anything is possible.

 

When you are inconsistent with your dosing or make mistakes, you can expect to feel bad symptoms. There is no need to ask where they come from. Please stop doing that.

 

When you upset your system by inconsistent dosing or making mistakes, that will delay your tapering. We do not recommend tapering when you're already feeling bad. If you have an upset stomach, if I were you, I'd wait until that settles down before tapering again.

 

Yes, you would taper Celexa before Klonopin.

Keep taking your drugs at the same time each day. Let us know when the bad symptoms go away. It can take a while.

 

Do not skip doses of any drug or you are making your own problems, which wastes our time as well as yours.

Keep taking your drugs at the same time each day. Let us know when the bad symptoms go away. It can take a while.

 

Do not skip doses of any drug or you are making your own problems, which wastes our time as well as yours.

Alto is it possible that the liquid  solution is making me nauseous ? thinking to going back to dry and getting a new pill cutter no sure 

as I find that some people  are not tolerating  the liquid  that well

How long have you been taking the liquid solution? When did you become nauseous?

 

Look at your daily notes on paper about your symptoms, when you take your drugs, and their dosages. Use a simple list format with time of day on the left and notation (symptom, drug and dosage) on the right.

 

Since you skipped a dose, that could have caused to to become nauseous.

I think its been a few weeks since I switched to liquid solution, anyway I think im starting to stabilize  but its like vicious cycle because I got nauseous  im not hungry  get more nauseous , because of low blood sugar... going to one pill mix I think is better

CHi Alto,  I  had a consultation with a psychiatrist,  he agreed I should  reduce the recital Celexa  first (correction: see lalala)   ... But he also said  since  I'm taking such have a small  dose I could  just leave it... Why are they  so incredibly ignorant!  I  need to  move,  search  apartments  in the middle... I'm not  sure  if I should  start  reducing  from new the week...  I do  have until  Oct. You think  if I  do very  slow  I won't  have  it will be OK?

We discussed this -- you need to stabilize on Celexa. You have been taking it irregularly.

I don't understand what you've posted. What is "recital"? We've said many, many times DO NOT REDUCE ANYTHING.

lalala, you keep on changing your drugs. Every time you make a change, it can take months to stabilize.

 

The last change was last week, when you stopped taking Celexa to see what would happen.

 

Stop changing your drugs. If you keep on doing this, we will have to ask you to leave this site.

Mistakes count. You can expect you might feel bad for weeks after a mistake. Do not change drugs when you feel bad after a mistake.

Yes I know,  I  just wish  not to be on the klonopin  so long,  as when I  came to the site I  was only  a  month  on it, now  it's 3 months... I  find I'm tired and weak on it,  I  also have some stress ahead I have  to find  a place  to live and paperwork... 

Im not going to do any drug change.

Hi lalala, 

 

I'm sorry you are suffering and going through stress. Try to take it as easy as you can. Sending Healing vibes to you.

 

Take good care of yourself <3

Dec 2016: Prazosin 2.5mg x2 at noon and night, Nifidipine 30mg x1 morn, Diltiazem 200mg x1 morn. for hypertension.  Cinnerizine 24mg as needed only. Metformin and Sitagliptin for hyperglycaemia. Vitamin C.

My meds: May 4th 2017 Abilify 10mg. May 10th dropped to 2.5 mg due to side effects. Tapered during several months in 2017. Currently drug free. 2019: I am doing well now, even if not updating this thread as much unless needed, sorry. Focusing more on supporting others' threads. Also friendly warning: Please do not read this thread if not up to it as it can be a somewhat triggering/stressful read, thank you. Love, peace and Blessings to you all <3
