Hi everyone,

Haven't posted for a while, Looking after family.

Pharmacy changed the make of my citalopram. It's happened before and I've been fine, I'm not precious about these things.

Then BLAMMO! A massive belly flop. Is it the change?

Is it a blip? Am I mental?

Christ I wasn't expecting this!
