Tension in the mind

Hey all

So in the past few days I've had really bad tension in the back of my head (cortex area). It's driving me crazy... I have it all day and night.as soon as I wake in the morning it appears again... its bringing me down and I'm worried even tho I shouldn't be..

I've tried deep breathing but it eases for 5mins or so then comes back...

Anybody no why?

is this connected to cit 20mg?

Any help or reassurance appreciated as always

Hi Cheryl u are not alone, mine comes and goes, but it gets very frustrating. Not sure if it has to do with the Cita but sure does seem like it. I've done like Tiger Balm and that does give relief and recently started using Epsom salt dissolved in water with a couple drops of essential oil and that helps also. Just soak wash cloth in it and put on back of neck for a half a hour or so. Do not need the oil if u don't have, Epsom salt alone is good for sore muscles. The sore neck was like one of my only side effects, so I considered myself lucky. Hang in there! Beth

Hi beth

I did have tension in my shoulders an neck but it did ease and I do still get it from time to time...

This is like pressure,a dull pain in the mind and I don't no why... I think lonelyness is to blame to be honest as I work alone and I have to much time to think

I don't no how to stop it and it's frustrating 😕

Hi ,

Yep sounds like Citalopram to me and there may be more indepth depression/anxiety association also. I have minor stiffness but did have the cortex feeling numb also earlier hang in there keep taking cita and it will ease focus on the light at the end of the tunnel remind yourslef of it several times daily
