Does Celexa (citalopram) help you?

Ginger, I’m sorry I posted another message under depression and anxiety about Xanax withdrawal. We did ask the dr about the options. Of course, not to increase Xanax, and not adding Buspar. He gave us 2 options. Either up the celexa to 60mg or be uncomfortable tapering off of Xanax. It’s so difficult to be going thru this withdrawal. I’m hoping you have some comments. Thank you.

@flow65 You have done your research, gotten the opinion of your pharmacist, all good things. This is where you become your own advocate. Looking at your personal health, weighing the options of possible heart issues, and how you can approach this tapering off of Xanax. My thoughts run to going very slow on tapering off any medication, taking up to 2 months to taper down, or more. I have done that a couple of times myself, weaning myself off Celexa. Perhaps you could supplement with CBD to help you? Increase your exercise? While your psychiatrist may have given you his thoughts and recommendations, you have the final say-so.
