Celexa Withdrawals...anyone else?

Hi, I have been slowly tapering off of celexa and have gone from 20mg for 5 years to 10mg every other day. I was curious what withdrawal symptoms others have had coming off this drug. The biggest ones for me have been feeling off balance, some disorientation and difficulty talking, stumbling over my words and stuttering. It's really unsettling, but I'm determined to get off this. Would love to hear others experiences and how long the withdrawals lasted for you. Thanks!

I weaned off of Celexa in November of last year. I had been on it over a year, but on anti-anxiety/depression medication for six years. The biggest withdrawal symptoms I had were my body feeling weak and my head feeling fuzzy. Thankfully the symptoms only lasted about two weeks. Good luck and congratulations on weaning off!
