I was on citalopram for a few years and it was a wonder drug for me.I came off it about 3 years ago and was fine.However a recent health scare plunged me back into anxiety so now Ive been back on it for five weeks.I’m disappointed to learn that it can take a lot longer, the second time around,to fully take effect,anywhere from 3 months to 6 months.I am on 20 mg per day which is what I was on before.Like most people with anxiety,I am impatient for results,A friend of mine went on it and she said it kicked in after 3 weeks.I was hoping that it would just take at most about 6 weeks for it to work for me,and at the moment my anxiety has worsened.I know that it will get better,but will it really take 3 to 6 months?
