It’s becoming a dread every single day.. these migraines kill me and make me feel like something is deeply wrong.. I don’t feel anxious as I was.. but my body is in pain.. i feel tingly everywhere.. I’m on week 4 of citalopram and I feel like everything should’ve went away by now.. 
(I was feeling these symptoms before I started medication btw) I wanna give up but I can’t.. will I ever get better? I haven’t worked in a whole month and it’s killing me not making any money.. I wish I could even exercise but my pain never lets me.. I just want to be Normal again.
Hi Candy,
Meds can have some strange side effects maybe the tingly pins n needles is made worse by Cit.
Had pins n needles down my arm and leg for ages when in the worst of my anxiety, my doc was not worried and now I am off all meds slightly less anxious and they have gone.
The mind body link is a strong one when we worry and anxiety is great at creating new symptoms for us to worry endlessly about.
I had nine months off work and it is difficult but well worth the effort when you come out of the other end broken but ready to build yourself stronger again physically and mentally.
Key things are:
NEVER GIVE IN!
Right Meds
Minimal worry
Exercise
Rest
Eat well
Meditate
Stay as strong as you can mentally
Do things you enjoy a little more every day
Get a new hobby to occupy your mind.
All the best
Hi i really feel your pain and can relate, I suffered 11 years with depression and anxiety, been on and off medication in that time. I have started back on citalopram three weeks ago and I feel horrible, everyday is like watching the world to by and I'm on the outside in darkness unable to join reality. I wouldn't try to give you medical advice because I'm not a doctor, but I will say these drugs take time to work and effect people in different ways,so stick with them and try be patient,I know it's easy to say, but stopping and starting these drugs is a bad idea, I used to do it for years,change dose, just stop them for days of weeks, and I was a mess. Take a s set time every day religiously,and go back to your doctor after another couple weeks if your still feeling this way. I really hope you start feeling better soon.
