9 weeks and still battling. Any reassurance would be appreciated.
Posted , 5 users are following.
I have just finished week 9 on 20 mg Citalopram. I can't say I have noticed a huge improvement other than slightly lower anxiety. I do not want to increase dose,but am curious to kmow how long it took for everyone else for this persistent grey cloud to lift. I am still feeling the low mood, lack of enthusiasm for much and fatigue. MY appetite has also taken a dive. Following my doctor's advice and sticking to 20mg for at least 12 weeks and longer if necessary. Please tell me if it took this long for any of you to get back on your feet. Thank you. Lee.

Stick with it...what you are going through is all normal. I have just finished week 12 and only now thinking things are actually going to be okay 😊
I still have the anxiety under lying but its much more managable now 😊
Keep going and stay with 20 for abother good few months. As it can take months to finallt feel better x x

I felt the same as you...my hubby works away and he left today for 3 weeks so as you can probably imagine that my anxiety is spiking...but I have decided to try not to let it get the better of me and try to stop over thinking everything and just enjoy my time of having the house to myself and my boys...
I maybe the one looking for reassuring in a few days 😊😊😊 x x

Like yourself I never thought for 1 min io would be posting on a website for reassurance ... But here I am lol.
This is a great site and its ppl who understand and been where you are now themselves.
Just keep the champers chilled I'm sure you will need it soon.
Chin up Lee.
