When will this get better 😥
Posted , 13 users are following.
I'm coming up to 6 weeks now on 40mg citalopram and the past few days have been really difficult again!
morning anxiety is so hard to deal with
My mood is really low
I was finding evenings a little easier but that doesn't seem to be happening anymore.
My anxiety is still bad
I just feel like giving up atm and that these tablets aren't gonna work for me anymore. It's so hard not to go to the doctors to switch to something else. How much longer do I have to keep going for? Surely I would have seen some improvement by now.

you stick and ride it out like we did.
Starting an ad wont have an effect in the first weeks you know.
Take your meds, eat healthy, go see your family. people that loves and care about you.
Did you have your appointment ????

Even if not fun to deal with, your symptoms are normal. And Im sure the psychiatrist told you the same.
Did he gave you a diagnosis?
Did you tell him about your thoughts? What did he say?

when I took zoloft a few years ago, 100mg was the dose I felt really good on. But it took nearly a month or 2 to feel better.

mostly after 4 days.
He should settle a bit before going to 50.
At LEAST 2 or 3 weeks just to have the med in his system.

why does he need to settle before going on 50 ?why cant he just stay in 25.me for example .i stay on 10 and is not a therapeutic dose and iam recovered.many times i have felt anxiety and if everytime i felt anxiety and increase there would not be a dose for me.

Gs, you already know what we will tell you.... That it is all normal.
Restarting a med make you feel sometimes worse a little before making you feel better. Your brain is trying to readapt to the serotonine.
Take your klonopin everytime you need it.
It will pass...

have a google regarding hormones, lots of diets etc x

1, you cant get crazy dreams if you dont sleep
2, we know what youre on we have been talking for weeks
3, what do you expect with all your dose changes etc!
also its citalopram withdrawal as ive been having crazy dreams for many months and havent slept through the night for as long as i can remember, if i listed all my symptoms it would take all blooming day, you arent the only one suffering, im sorry youve been given plenty of advice and chosen to ignore it all except for taking benzos that is!

Oh ok . Well its very unpleasant and very disturbing .
toria_07298 gsquez77

it wouldnt be called withdrawal if it was pleasant, its just time and patience, how do you think i feel i was starting to settle after a year of hell and a faulty bottle has sent me back to the start!
