    I took citalopram for 2 years. When I first started taking them I slept for 3 days straight because it made me feel so bad. I was sick and dizzy all the time. But it did get better. It will take a couple of weeks before your depression will go away but it's completely worth it. You will know it works because one day you will wake up happy and feel like taking on the world. My advice it to power through it because it will be worth it. But if it's too much to bear You can always talk to your doctor and change your medicine.
