hi could some one please help me or give me some advice? I have been on 10mg citolpram for 8 days now I have suffered with anxiety for 4 years and always had it under control I know my triggers. but recently I have started getting these head pressure feelings in my head and making me want to just give up and end my life I don’t want to kill myself cause I don’t want to die and have a 1 year old daughter that needs me. my doctor said its depression but I don’t know cause for the last week I have had the pressure in my head thanks liam
Hi Liam,were you getting the head pressure before you started taking the meds? Just that Iwas getting the same symptom & Citalopam eased it off a bit.
Hi Mike
Yes I was getting the same head pressure feeling before I started taking citolpram but seems to be getting worse like I Carnt cope with it.
I Would deffiantly give it another month liam, it could be that the cit is starting to work its magic on your problem, as like a lot of things in life, sometimes it gets worse before it gets better, i myself have 3 daughters, so its worth battling through it, as kids give you something to fight for , good luck, but remember, theres alleays people on here, whos been through it themselves & will help you through it.
HI I also am haveing temple pains and head pressure, I am week 5 now on 15mg, from yesterday, I am haveing bad anxiety and internal treamberling since April this year, still getting it but I am going to carry on with the pill , it will be the second time on it for me,
hopefully will be the meds working as I hate the feeling I feel like I’m going crazy and have no control
Hi Liam
I too have been getting that feeling lately, it’s horrible and scary. I’m hoping it will pass.
How long have you been taking the meds linda? I’m only on day 9 now I take my tablet between 9:30 and 10am every day I’m only on 10mg as I don’t want to be on a high dose
Hi Liam
I was on 10mg for several years but came off old turkey. Big mistake. I went back on 5, then 10, now 7.5. I cannot seem to stabilise. 10 was too much for me the second time round so I’ve been on 7.5 for 4-5 weeks. I used to take mine in the morning first time round but even that didn’t seem to agree with me the second time so now I take it at 3pm. However I am going to start taking it an hour earlier to see how that works. Also by cutting the tablet not 100% sure I’m taking the correct dose each day. Nightmare, but I think I need them. You are on early days yet so you are still getting side effects. The first tine round worked great for me, made the mistake of thinking I didn’t need them anymore.
