20 mg is the minimal dose just about...most take 40...u could try taking half for a while and see if you feel any different..if it is scored then it is ok to pop it in half...ask your doctor first so he knows what is up...that is what i did with the lexapro...not from fear of WD but because I can not sleep well when I took 10 mg...so i mostly took 5 mg....for some reason ADs affect my sleep..that is not the case for most

im only on 20 mgs and they are scored round pills i know iam prolly over reactin i just wana be free  from everything and i want to do this the right way

I bet u r a sweet person...but do not worry so much!  LOL  i know it is hard hence  MY SCREEN NAME....28 days is barely time for them to kick in good...if u have relapsed befoe and you feel good now...personally i would ride it out and continue on them for a little longer....it is true...i have read that people can have a  wd from AD...I guessanytime you introduce a chemical to your body, it can become reliant upon it...i never have and no one i know personally has had wds from the...but as posted earlier...some do...so it can happen...i was on a small dose as well....what is your dose?   are they caps or pills?   are they scored with a line in the middle?

No it would come and go at different times. It gets in your system effectively by at least week 2 and then you notice the difference. Nothing seemed as dramatic. I felt like myself. It didn't feel like I was on Lexapro, I just didn't have the extreme highs and lows that I did without it.

[josh231]

like when u got up were u depressed in the morning? until you took the pill?

[mimi1313]

I don't know how to answer that. You may be feeling like you because of the anti depressant.Celexa is for both anxiety and depression. Basically it evens out your moods. So its hard to tell. It really helped me when I was getting a divorce. I had major mood swings and It just made me somewhat normal. Without it, I would be really happy one day and crying the next. I didn't have any wd's but everyone is different. I wouldn't just stop them. While on Lexapro, it came to a point that they stopped working for me. I don't know if any of this helps.
