Hi everyone, I’m trying to decide between citalopram and Prozac (fluoxetine) and would really appreciate hearing about your experiences.
Which one worked better for your depression/anxiety? And how did they affect your weight, appetite, energy, and sleep?
I’d especially like to hear from anyone who has tried both. Which one would you choose and why?
I stopped taking citalopram around a two months ago, and I swear losing weight feels impossible now 😭
I’m eating way less than before, trying to cut sugar, and walking like 4 times a week for 45–50 mins, but my weight keeps bouncing between the same 1–2 kg. It’s so frustrating because I genuinely feel like I’m trying.
I also have stomach issues, so intermittent fasting honestly doesn’t work for me at all. If I stay hungry too long my stomach gets really messed up, so I can’t do those long fasting windows everyone recommends.
Did anyone else struggle with weight after stopping citalopram?
How long did it take for your body/metabolism to feel normal again?
I’m trying not to crash diet because it destroys my mental health, but I also have a trip coming up and I just wanna feel better in my body again 🥲
