Citalopram for anxiety

[Spartacus1983]

So after weeks of panic attacks and health anxiety my GP prescribed me Citalopram. I did some research and it seems that this is more used for depression. Anyone here using it for anxiety? And has it helped?

Thank you!

I take escitalopram which is a newer version of citalopram and it has helped me immensely with my anxiety.
