Hi fellow anxiety warriors!
I've now been on citalopram since September.. 20mg since December. Anxiety has massively reduced, although derealisation still pops its ugly head up in nearly every social situation for some reason.
But overall I'm feeling better than before cit. HOWEVER- I am now so relaxed about life I almost don't care about it? I feel so unmotivated to do anything. I sleep way more, eat bad food and don't exercise because I literally cannot be bothered and I don't even care that I can't be bothered?! Also this is affecting my studies- I have two essays due in and I left all of my work at uni and now cannot write one- but I'm not worried in the slightest even though I should be?
I also feel slightly numb towards other people's emotions, if someone makes a joke it takes me a while to realise it's funny and I should laugh. Also I am having such bad memory loss- i forget why I'm in the kitchen, that I've got plates out, that I've moved things or said things to certain people! It's scary...
Has anyone else experienced these issues? If so - does it get better?!
Thanks
