Was just prescribed Citalopram. Does anyone have any experience with this medication?

      I was on it for a little bit but it only made me super tired and it didn't really help me.

      RC23 I take mine at night because one of the common SE is drowsiness. I've never experienced it, but it appears you have. Maybe try to slowly switch times?

      I was switched to sertraline. My anxiety flared along with a few other nasty side effects. Not really something you want to deal with when you’re trying to feel better. Thank you for all your feedback and I wish you the best! -S

      I just started take this as well. I feel sleepy all the time.. do you take yours in the morning or night?

      I take 10mg daily and it has helped so much! The only SE I had was yawning and it went away after a little bit. I feel like I finally have my life back because of it

      My mom also takes 20mg and it really helped her get through severe anxieties that were causing her dizziness that made it so she couldn’t go to work for months. She likes it and didn’t have any side effects.

      I liked it when I took it! I only took 5mg and it soothed my daily minor anxiety that was inconveniencing my life. I found it make me feel just sort of numb to emotion though, so I went off of it. I hope you like it though!

      I suffered from excessive sweating when I took it which was really weird because I don’t sweat a lot even when I exercise. After a while with the drug it made my anxiety less severe, but didn’t vanish completely.
