Scared

Hi everyone,
I’ve been taking citalopram for 4 days now, and previous to that I was taking mirtazapine 15mg for 5 weeks. That was helping me sleep but did nothing for my anxiety during the day as it would make feel as if I wasn’t there.
The side effects of the mirtazapine were bad but I feel the citalopram is even worse. I get really bad headaches, my anxiety is extreme and I feel like my head is going to explode. I also fear that it’s not working, and I need to go to a mental hospital. I also get unwanted horrible thoughts. Please say it’s gets better because I can’t cope at the moment.

Yes it does get better I don't know why doctor would give you two antidepressants..stick with celexa everything your feeling is quite the norm...

I think some doctors add low dose mirt to counter the insomnia that cit gives some people at the beginning.It's quite an easy drug to drop when you feel the Citalopram working unlike z drugs which you can get addicted to.
