The Dr was amazing!! He said to stop cit and begin paroxetine immediately. He also wants me to take diazepam 1/2 twice a day and one at bedtime. Anyone ever have experience with any of this?

I was on citalopram for 4 months - horrendous the worst tablet ever And side effects. I did have to take diazepam a 2mg when mines first triggered and it really helped but I would only take mine of o felt it hitting and totally overwhelming me as I was scared to get addicted however as a short term until your new tablet kicks in rhata prob a great safety net for yoi ! Lots of luck with new tablets x
