    Hi Katie, I am afraid this is quite normal so earl on. You will need to give it more time, everyone is a little different but maybe about a good 6 weeks total, from beginning, then see how you are doing. You may already have a doctor apt to see how you are doing.  I have been on Cital for 3 years, and doing pretty well.  I will still have some down days, but I have way more up days than down!!!  At least now, when I do have a off day, I know what to do, and how to get through it, and I am fine. Plus, it helps to have this forum to come to, as the wonderful people on here have been through it, or are going through it, and understand it!!  And they have great advice!  You won't be alone here!  Good luck to you Dear!!
