Re, last night's post:
"33 days into crossing over from citalopram to venlafaxin. Venlafaxin has helped me massively with my sleep, eating etc...
However my last stage of getting rid of citalopram made me feel pretty cr*p. Doc reassured me and said it's normal and it will start picking up again. It did, pfew, thank God.
However, this week, a week after completely getting rid of citalopram and not having a venlafaxin increase I have been having trouble with my sleep a bit again and today my appetite was affected. My mood was really crap yesterday and a bit crap today. This is totally freaking me out. I was doing so well on venlafaxin, why, since dropping citalopram has my depression got a bit worse?? Does it mean 75mg venlafaxin is not enough for me? Is that bad? Does it mean I am going to need an increase of venlafaxin every month??????!
A bit freaked out, I know it is the depression making me worry but still.... off to see doc tomorrow.
Anybody else been through similar situation?"
So doc is increasing venlafaxin but I am really worried as I don't understand why after progressing so well since crossover I am now getting worse again! Doc needs meds need time to go into your system and it's normal but I just feel scared and worried. Do you think I will be able to recover?? The depression is making me think that my case is really bad
