Hi guys,
I have been prescribed Citolopram 20mg for Anxiety. I take it in the morning and am on day 5 today.
The first couple of days were fine, day 3 and 4 I had major loss of apetite but nothing too unpleasant. Today while I was at the bus stop (about 40 minutes after taking my tablet) I felt really dizzy, sweats, and I actually had to lay down.. bit embarassing, 5 minutes later I was ok.
I don't know if that was because of the meds or because I did not eat anything yesterday.
A friend of mine suggested I take them at night, so I don't need to deal with the "kicking in" feeling, and when I wake up it might not be so bad, but I am concerned if I do that I will have trouble sleeping and do not want it to affect my work. Eitehr that or I wait to take my tablet until I'm at work, at least I'll be safe if I flake out.
I'm really hoping the SE's don't get worse than this, I will stick with it, but would really appreciate your advice, I don't have anyone else I can ask.
Kindest regards,
Adam
