Day 2 of citalopram 20mg to treat my anxiety & depression
Posted , 4 users are following.
I've always had social anxiety while grown up but after having my 1 1/2 yr old depression showed itself much more. I tried to blame it on hormone fluctuation but then my Dr. had my try citalopram. On day 1 I did notice dizziness and headache but after eating a solid meal that subsided. I did also lose my train of thought while holding a convo. W/coworkers yesterday and I thought that was odd for me. Please tell me if anyone else had any stange side effects while starting this med. This is my first time reaching out for help and admiting my issues to anyone including my Dr. But I have to get well for my son now. I have a family history from my mom and sister of manic bipolar depression and anxiety but I tried to deny and fI got the battle solo as I saw it as being a failure to ask for help. Thanks for any discussion on my first step at trying to get my life under control.

Firstly, I think day 1, although everyone is different is too early to get any side effects. I'm sorry to hear that you have been unwell. Let's hope this is the start of your journey to recovery.
It's a time thing lovely that you've got to stick with. Give it a couple of weeks and you may notice a difference and feel the benefits of your tablet.
Have you got maybe friends or other people you can talk tw about what you've been experiencing or feel? Didn't know if a friendly face may help you.
