I was on propranolol too but now i only pop one in a morning when I feel like I’ll need one (which isn’t very often tbf)  |
I had brain zaps when I stopped raking citalopram without weaning. Like you say, painless but weird all the same. I stuck with it though as I hadn't really needed the citalopram for years.....took about 3 months for them to go entirely although they lessened quite quickly but first few weeks were bad
