i had horrible bout with anxiety and depression over a year ago.. it was the worst year of my life but i recovered using citalopram .. fast forward i felt so amazing i didn't think i needed the meds anymore and stopped them.. bad mistake ... within 2 months my mom got bad news and it instantly flipped me back into SEVERE ANXIETY ... i immediatley went back on my medication .. started small and worked up to my regulart dosage of 40mg which helped me last time. i have been back on citalopram for about 4 weeks total.. im so scared the med will not pull me out if this again...i have scary thoughts but only because i feel like i wont get better .. i have had some good days, some decent days, and some horrific days also .. im still able to work and actually seem better while im working... seems like last time i just woke up feeling "normal" one day... i pray it happens again! i have sleep good the last four nights ... i do feel agitated sometimes ... will this med work again?

Hey April, if they worked for you once they will work again. I am on them for a second time, on week 12 and still a little up and down but they are working. You will get their, keep going. Its a rollercoaster ride on these meds but everyone seems to get their in the end.

No problem, its tough as you have good weeks and bad week. Well thats the stage im in at the moment anyway. Only been kn them 3 months. In the good weeks i feel myself and healed and like i dont need them then the bad like im at the beginning. I know this will just keep improving over time. Dont look back and regret as its done now, look forward to recovery

Hi April, i am on week 15 and feeling much better. Still have some small lows or wobbles but theyre nowhere near as bad as they used to be. Keep going, its easy to get disheartened but you will get their! Keep looking forward to your next good day and try not to fight it. Your welcome to message me if your struggling
