It can be a nerve wracking process but try to be patient and notice how you feel. If it’s helping, it’s worth it. There’s no shame in needing to use it long term. I’ve been on Celexa for years and am grateful for the rough times it’s helped me through
That was my first anti-anxiety medication and that was 12 years ago. It helped for awhile, but once it wore off for me, we switched to Paxil, but hated the weight gain. Now I’m on Zoloft and it’s pretty good. Keeps me from overthinking and ruminating.
