Hey all

i managed to get to the docs today and iv been prescribed 20mg of citalopram daily

i suffered with anxiety for a good three years and never took a single medication, half due to being sceptical and the other due to being scared.

my anxiety died off for a year but has recently returned, being the reason i went back to the docs
and now im left in the same position i was all them years ago, do i start taking this anti-depressant or not
because again im sceptical and scared.

advice would be much appreciated thanks
Richy

Hey rich

Gonna be an interesting journey seeing what happens!

Kris123 is doing the Citalopram thing. She has a thread you can comment on if you want, ask her about any side effects (if she doesn't mind)

Advice much appreciated? Start at 10mg for a week or two! :)

20mg can sometimes be too much right off the bat for us folk!
