Hey all. Not sure if I'm posting this in the right place but hey..
Started on 10mg of Citalopram about 7 weeks ago after I smoked a joint in February(!) Had a massive panic attack which brought up a lot of old anxiety I suffered as a child.
anyway I was doing kind of ok after about a month on it, although I was still constantly thinking about the anxiety, I could feel myself coming back. I decided to up my dose to 20mg 4 days ago as the doc told me this was the recommended dosage. Boy I wish I hadn't. I am climbing the walls. My anxiety is through the roof, like when I first started the 10mg but maybe even a little worse. Has anybody else experienced this and did it calm down again? If so how long? I don't want to go back to 10mg if I can help it as I am worried about doing even more damage.
Please help
