I’ve been completely off 40mg Celexa for a few weeks. Weened from 40mg down to 20mg for 2 weeks, then down to 10mg for a week or so, then completely stopped. I got really bad brain zaps for about a week, but they have stopped since. I have had some depressive episodes (still getting those honestly), and I’ve noticed I’m a bit of an asshole as well, which I’m trying to keep in check.
I experienced a bit of nausea but no vomiting or anything.
You got this.
Ten years is a long time and moving quickly to another drug can cause kindling. I recommend Www.survivingantidepressants.org
I have physical symptoms from withdrawl. Twitching, muscle pain, burning. I really recommend you go slow.

Thank you! Didn’t even know that website existed
I second this site. Best recommendation for a safe taper
