for panoc attacks and bad anxiety I've been given citalopram to take. Been signed off for 2 weeks from work.

for the past week I've been pretty much stuck indoors, I've not gone out on my own as I'm too scared. I've been having panic attacks everytime I get in the car .

the first few days i had a really bad sick feeling when I yawned. this has kind of gone hopefully. but now I still get the spaced out feel for a few hours and feel extremely tired. my anxiety and thoughts have also got really bad.

I go on holiday to gran canaria on the 15th in about a weeks time for 21st. i don't even know if these tablets are worth the hassle as I won't really be able to drink or enjoy my holiday due to the side effects. at the minute I can't even leave my house let alone going to another country.

How long does it take to feel better. what did other people experience on their second/third week?

    I am going to try taking them at night instead before I go to bed to see if that makes a difference. I think I'm just in denial about taking tablets for panic attacks and anxiety and can't see them helping.
