Help - need some reassurance

[Windywel]

Hi all I am day 7 on 10mg after restarting citalopram. Been off it for 6 months after 4 years on it for anxiety and depression. Anxiety has gone through the roof since starting it. Much worse than it was was before. I thought it might be easing off by now but no sign. Almost constant intense anxiety with lots of mini panic attacks as well. Anyone else had this for a couple of weeks before it started easing? Had another bad night last night (Im in NZ so it’s morning here) Thanks heaps

Hiyer, I haven't used this med - but wanted to ask - as you've been on it before, do you recall how you felt on starting it last time ? It sounds like you are having a really rough time with it at the moment, and thinking that maybe you should talk to your prescriber as maybe the starting amount is too high or something ? Sorry, not much help am I lol
