Seconding the sentiments on withdrawal. I went off Citalopram cold turkey due to an incompetent doctor (who incidentally had not informed me that it was a dependency forming drug). I have never, ever felt that shit in my entire life, and hope I never do again. If you ever launch into a profanity-laden tirade at the top of your lungs in public because a car was inching forwards at a red light, you might also be going through withdrawal. Tip for those who want to avoid this: Fluoxetine. Switch to it before quitting, it has a really long half-life so you can just stop taking it, and the levels in your body slowly tail off. Much nicer.
