Hi All, i have recently gone from 20 mg of cit to25, after 4 months on 20 my gp upped it to 25 as there was no results on the 20, after 2 weeks on 25 i have had glimpses of feeling better for few houres which is hopeful although i have anxiety and disturbed thoughts in the morning as, i understand is normal when going up on the dose..........the last few mornings i have woken and felt what i can only describe as a feeling of almost euphoria,this lasts for about an hour and than fades back to anxiety and the disturbed thoughts, this euphoric feeling is really frightening, is this normal, never had this on 20, anybody had this, if so, please advise,thanks in advance

    hi Geoff. ive never experienced this myself but i remember reading this as one of the side effects of cit and i think it needs to be discussed with your doctor.
