Celexa/Citalopram

Posted , 6 users are following.

Hello, I have been on Celexa before and it worked but I wanted to try to go natural then my anxiousness came back so now taking 10mg for 4 weeks didnt help so then moved up to 20mg and had bad brainfog and this might sound weird but its like weird to talk to friends and I feel like my conscience is gone from going back and forth from the doses. I still feel numb and dont know what else to do I've taken the 20mg for 3 weeks on thursday any suggestions or if anyone else has experienced the depersonalization let me know

    I’ve increased my dose to 40 three weeks ago, and got really bad brain fog as well. My head just feels numb.

    Doctor said it might go away because it’s still quite early, if not I may have to lower my dose. I’m going to give it at least another month before I decide tho.
