Anyone else like this? Feels like there is a thick fog in my brain, worse in the mornings but then usually clears by the evening. Feels like I'm seeing the world through a haze and nothing seems exciting or interesting, just dull and boring...

Yes Mojo, they call it brain fog; yet another anxiety symptom.

Will it go when the anxiety lessens? I can't bear the thought of being like this for the rest of my life.

Yes. :) Distraction, living in the present moment and changing your thought process will all help. Extra stress, tiredness, panic and depression make it worse.

Thank you! I've just started an increase from 10mg to 20mg citalopram and I'm expecting some side effects. I'm going to try and ignore them as best I can and keep to my normal routine.

Yes!!! I feel like mine is finally starting to go away. I have been really clear headed for the past couple of days. It can be from the anxiety and meds.

Have you had your thyroid tested lately? I ask because I know when you take hormones they can mess with your thyroid. Also a lot of women end up hypothyroid during or after menopause.
