I've been on 20mg cit for 6weeks now and I'm still extremely anxious especially during the day I have no appetite constant strange head sensations, racy heart fluttery chest, basically can feel the anxiety through out my body, my thoughts won't shut off n m constantly overthrowing things and scaring myself, I was beginning to feel better at wk 5 but me and my hubby had a big fall out and even tho we are fine now I can't shake this anxiety off, do u think I need a increase in dose?

Sorry to hear you're still suffering xx
I think that since you were feeling improvement at week 5, I think the medication will work for you. Because you've been through an anxious and upsetting time recently, I imagine that's what's brought your feelings back. Increasing the dose will make you feel worse again initially, as you'll have to go through the side effects again.
You could ask your doctor for something like Nitrazepam (think it's that one) as you can take it to help calm the anxiety whilst you wait to get through this difficult time.
Citralopram takes a long time to start working for most, and it will work for you if it's done so in the past.
I really feel for you, as it's difficult enough battling with depression without added stress on top. You will get through this and out through the other side. I know you will.
K xx
