Stopping Citalopram for Elvanse?

Hello ADHDers,

I’ve (27F) been recently diagnosed via the right to choose pathway in the UK. The psychiatrist who did my initial assessment recommended that I wean off my antidepressants (20mg Citalopram) because it’s highly likely that I won’t need it anymore once the stimulants start to treat the root of my issues. Has anyone else experienced this? Did you find that you didn’t need the antidepressants?

For context: I’ve been on different antidepressants for 10 years, Citalopram for 8 years (with a couple of gaps in between). Last time I stopped the Citalopram it was awful, I went through withdrawal and my depression spiralled for around a year, at which point I resumed the meds. I did cold-turkey it last time though - never again! I’m currently waiting to start titration.
