I am on day 4 of 10mg citalopram for anxiety and depression, side effects are horrible, spaced out, insomnia, mood goes up then down, buckets of sweat at night, severe morning anxiety, cant concentrate, feel generally weak. So i have started taking 5mg in morning and 5mg at night and hope the side effects are more bareabke. I have read a lot on here that people start feeling better after 2/4/6 weeks but i am still scared ill never get back to my old self. Is anyone else beginning on cit at the moment?
