The slower the better. You can try many ways, but if you wanna be sure to make it through, TAKE your time. You can try tapering to 15 mg for a week and see how you feel... If it's not okay, go back to one day 20, one 15, one 20, one 15... Then one 20, two fifteen, and so on ...

If you feel fine at 15, go down to 10 for a week. Then 5, for a week... Then 2,5...

Taper as slowly as needed, there is no hurry, and keep in touch with your doctor/psy on a weekly basis if possible.

It is totally possible to stop but you must not feel angry or sad or frustrated if it doesn't work, just go more slowly.

Also, keep yourself busy but with fun and/or distracting things while tapering down, spoil yourself (cliché I know, but it works !), share with someone you trust your ups and downs on a daily basis, and keep in mind that in the end, everyone can get through it in time :)

What happens when you sniff citalopram?

citalopram is an anti depressant. Its the generic form of celexa. Taking one 20mg daily by regular use (swallow pill with water) made me feel crappy enough! If someone sniffs one of these, you will probably want to kill yourself. But that's just what I think would happen, who knows. *shrugs shoulders*
