hi, i had a similar problem to you when i was taking a med similar to citalopram called escitalopram, i was taking 20mg which is equivalent to 40mg of citalopram. it was about 6 weeks i was taking that dose, and i had constant increased anxiety as well as a constant upset stomach, so i spoke to my doctor and he told me to decrease the amount i was taking, which i did and then i found i did feel better. please be careful though with dose adjustments though as everyone is different. perhaps discuss options with your doctor if you feel it is time for making changes
