Joined this forum to share my recent experience
I have been on citalopram for years with recent dose of just 7mg a day
Started kava 5 weeks ago and loved it twice as a week maybe 30g medium grind
Recently upped dose of ssri to 10mg. Had normal kava (maybe a bigger than normal dose and same Friday).... Friday night was lovely .....one of best Kava sessions
Had a VERY bad yesterday .....very anxious and low mood ....very negative outlook , little appetite ,slightly sick
Did gym as normal, drank lots of water ....forced myself to eat
Feel Much better today
Storng suspicion there has been some interaction and only just coming out as I have increased both kava and ssri dose slightly
Shame as I was enjoying kava as an alcohol substitute but going to have to ditch it
