I just found out I'm pregnant (yay!), but the problem is I am on 10mg Citalopram against anxiety. I have been gradually reducing the dose over the last few months, so that I am now down on 10mg a day. I know that it is horrible for the baby so I really want to stop, but I am not sure whether it would be better to do it over a couple of weeks or go cold turkey? I personally have been of stable mental health for 7 months and, according to the doctor and my own personal feeling, am ready to cease taking it. At the moment, I am over the moon at the moment so I don't fear the withdrawal symptoms, but of course I am worried for the baby as I am very early (only 5 weeks) and I don't want to mess up his or her nervous system.
I am 23 and of very good health.
Any advice is much appreciated!
