    You can’t get 1mg of Citalopram - I think you might mean 10mg, which is a small dose.

    The meds don’t cause any damage to the brain - memory and loss of concentration are caused by anxiety and constant inward thinking which tires the mind. The meds add to this and do make you feel worse to start with but memory and concentration usually improve as you further on the meds. Sometimes the minds remains foggy, but its not permanent.

    There is no brain damage - they wouldn’t be available for the public to take if they were to harm you like this.
