I've been on Citalopram for 7 weeks and I'm not really feeling any better. My mood is low persistently and I am tired all the time. For 1 week I took 10mg then for 3 weeks I took 20mg and for 3 weeks I've been taking 30mg. Anyone know when I'm going to start to feel better?
Thanks for any help in advance
Kate

I am three weeks along on 10mg of cit for anxiety. Honestly I agonised about taking them. First two weeks were difficult and I had side effects...not everyone does, by the way. I took them for a year four years ago and had NO side effects. I also know people who take them now and had NO side effects. I feel much better than I did three weeks ago. I am also having some counselling to try to sort issues as don't want to just take cit and not sort things out. I wanted to feel better and tried on my own but if there's a chemical unbalance then the cit will prob help. Good luck
