I quit the med cold turkey because I had enough of the cravings. It's been 8 days and so far the only side effect I can notice is insomnia. If it was to get severe I do have a couple of pills left but I have no intention of taking them unless it becomes desperate. So far no depression of anything like that. I think I may get away with going cold turkey because 20mg is quite a low dose. Of course if I was on 40mg I would never recommend this. And to think my docter was thinking of putting me up to 30mg a few months ago and the only thing that stopped that from happening was I had trouble arranging an appointment. Glad for that now.
20 MG is the recommended dose its not low, you can an many do go higher but side effect get worse like orgasm , weight gain, constipation, even impotence , i swapped to lexapro citaloprams young brother and only take 10 mg it is a stronger med . but it ENGLAND not used so much has way to expencive .My GP scripts me has mental hospital say it carnt afford it.
