Hi, I'm a newbie here, I didn't realise this forum existed til earlier.
I really need some moral support to keep going as I'm feeling so bad ATM (aren't we all).
I've had PND after both my babies, and my current tablets are 20mg of Citalpram. I've been feeling fab for over a year now, it's amazing what the tablets can do (anyone doubting whether to take the tabs, go for it, it has saved me).
I've decided to reduce my dose by biting them in 2, so I've been on 10mg for a week. I thought it would be a doddle, but oh, I was so wrong!
I feel sooo low again, in the space of a week! Irritable, grumpy, along with terrible anxiety which is giving me a bad tummy and that horrible feeling of dread in the pit of my stomach, like something bad is going to happen. Time is going so slow, and that's the worst thing. Ugh, it's just such a rubbish thing to have.
I should have probably spoken to the doctor first. So I've given up on the 10mg and gone back to 20mg. Got a doctors appointment but not until next Monday. Going to try and get one tomorrow instead. Not sure what the point is of the thread, just needed to vent how I feel, hubby not the best at understanding, bless him!
