    Thumbs down falling asleep

    I have been on citalopram for about 13 months now. I have started having periods of what I call anaesthetic sleep as i comes on suddenly -not while I am driving mind . Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this

    Re: falling asleep

    I have periods where i become overwhelmingly fatigued and i can go into what feels like a drug induced sleep and struggle to wake up...I dont tend to associate it with the citalopram tho, i always put it down to blood sugar levels,fluctuating hormones etc..

    Re: falling asleep

    Magic I can understand what you mean hun its a bit scary I wonder if this is what sleeping sickness is if you were bitten by the Tse Tse fly lol. But mine only happens once in a while probably when I am having a blip I couldnt tell if I am having one now as had so much going on .
    So as you said as long as we are only driving out armchair/settee thats all good.
