coming off citalopram success stories

I successfully came off Citalopram. I tapered the dose gradually over several weeks under my doctor's guidance. I noticed that regular exercise and a healthy diet really helped during the process. I also made sure to get enough sleep and stay hydrated. At first, I had some mild withdrawal symptoms like dizziness, but they subsided quickly.

I coped by staying positive. I knew that coming off Citalopram was a journey and I was determined to succeed. I made sure to take each day as it came.

One success story is of a person who tapered off Citalopram slowly under their doctor's guidance. They started by reducing the dose very gradually, like cutting the pill into smaller pieces. They had some mild withdrawal symptoms like a bit of dizziness at first, but it passed quickly. They also focused on a healthy lifestyle during the process, with regular exercise and a balanced diet which they believe helped them get through it smoothly.

My journey of coming off Sertraline was actually quite positive. I had been taking it for six months due to some mild depression. As I tapered off under medical supervision, I made sure to also focus on my lifestyle. I started exercising more regularly and eating healthier. I think this combination really helped. I haven't had any relapse of depressive symptoms, and I'm so glad to be medication - free. It shows that with the right approach, coming off Sertraline can be successful.

One success story is of a person who had been on Suboxone for a long time. They gradually tapered their dose under medical supervision. They focused on a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise and a balanced diet. This helped them deal with the physical and mental challenges of coming off Suboxone. Eventually, they were able to completely stop taking it and have been drug - free for over a year now.

One success story could be that a woman had been on Dianette for a long time due to hormonal issues. After coming off it, she noticed her mood improved significantly. She had been experiencing mood swings while on the pill, but once she stopped, she felt more stable and like her old self again.

There are cases where patients who had difficulty concentrating due to their depressive state were able to regain focus after taking Citalopram. It worked well for them in terms of not only improving their mental state but also allowing them to resume normal daily activities such as work or study. For example, a young professional was on the verge of losing his job because of his inability to perform tasks efficiently. After starting Citalopram, over time, he was able to meet deadlines and his work quality improved.

One success story is of a person who slowly tapered off their SSRI under a doctor's supervision. They had a lot of support from their family and friends during the process. They focused on healthy lifestyle changes like regular exercise, a balanced diet, and good sleep. These factors helped them manage the withdrawal symptoms effectively and they felt much better after fully coming off the SSRI.

One benefit is regaining your natural chemical balance in the brain without the influence of the drug. When you taper off Citalopram successfully, you can start to really understand your own mental state without the medication's effect. For example, if you were on it for anxiety, you can see if your natural coping mechanisms are working better now.

Medical supervision is key. In many success stories, doctors carefully monitored the tapering process. For example, gradually reducing the dosage over weeks or months. This helped avoid withdrawal symptoms.
