Am I fooling myself?

Nightmares all night long. Horrible nightmares. I gradually tapered Celexa down to 5 mg this last week. If I don't take SSRI's I don't think I need .5mg Klonopin to relax and sleep. So that was reduced also. last night--no meds. I felt crazy when hubby woke me because of constant nightmares all night long. Grabbed meds and now feel o.k. Why can't I get rid of nightmares w/o meds? why?

Tapering both meds at the same time may be too much to ask of your system. Talk to your doc about this: slowly taper Celexa, wait for washout, then slowly taper Klonopin.

Good luck!
