Hi hilda,
I take citalopram but my brother takes the same med as you and he said it did increase his anxiety at first. He would have panic attacks and think he had a brain tumor or he was having a heart attack. He said he experienced dry mouth and not sleeping very good. He also was getting tension headaches. He said it subsided for him at about 4 weeks. He said he feels good now and he can do things now that he was not able to do.
I am only on day 13 of my medicine so I am right in the same spot as you.
Did any of you guys had any depersonalization?????
I am not sure that's what it is but I feel very out of it alot. Just kinda float through but I find it helpful to talk about it and keep me grounded with reality.
