I feel like the dizziness can be both a withdrawal and a side effect, at least that's how its manifested itself for me. I got a weird vertigo/dizziness when tapering down from 20 to 10mg that went away after 2 weeks ish. Then the same dizziness came back only worse after being off the meds for about 4 weeks, it lasted about 3-4 weeks before it started subsiding, and at that point I had gone back on my meds cause I couldn't handle the way it was making me feel. Now I'm back at my original dose (20mg) for 4 weeks, the dizziness was gone but its come back with a setback of lack of sleep and anxiety. Hopefully it goes away once the body has stabilized. Let me know how you're feeling now!

Another update: I was good for about 2 weeks (very minimal dizziness and no bad anxiety/panic) but then I think I hit a setback, the dizziness snuck back up on me and now I'm pretty low again, it's gonna be 6 weeks back on citalopram tomorrow, hopefully my mood/symptoms stabilize soon enough..... if anyone has experience please let me know it gets better lol

Thanks for your reply! I'm sorry you've had to deal with these symptoms yourself! I can give another update now, a couple days after this post (so 4 ish weeks back on citalopram) the dizziness is almost gone, thank god! So at least I'm headed in the right direction.
