Apart from the normal side effects...dry mouth..swimy head, slight headache. I woke up at 2am with my heart beating so hard and dhiarreah and extreme nausea.
..is this a side effect and will it go? I was so scared! I felt so good yesterday until waking up like that. Got so scared I really wanted to go to hospital or something
Did u eat anything that maybe didn't agree with your tummy?
No, nothing I don't usually eat
Hmmm....weird. I never did that. Ive been on 20mg of cit for 33 days.
Hi Laura,I had the beating heart and diarrhoea for just over a week, they are known side effects, but does wear off.
im on week 7 and the only side affect I have is sleepless nights :-(( x
Thanks. Its was really horrible. Its been five hours since and I'm only just starting to come right now. I really thought I was going pass out or something. Hot prickly rash type feeling.
I really feel like stopping my meds. I've been on citalopram about three times in the past and it has worked for me after about two weeks
Stick with it Laura it does ease after 10days -2weeks x
Thanks. I just feel so consumed by panic and side effects
I'm on week 7 of 10mg, and I had nausea, headaches, dry mouth and beating heart etc. Most side effects went after around 5 weeks, and am pleased to say that my jaw clenching is nearly gone, have only had a couple of headaches. I am however still struggling sleeping, but I've never been good at sleeping anyway!
Stick with it Laura, unless you're really bad, then speak to your GP before making any decisions.
Hi Smudger, I'm on week 7 as well, only sleeping is my issue. I went to the GP today and he has suggested I swap to take the dose in the evening as may help with sleep, here goes, 1st night tonight ....
