Hello!
I'm Taffy - I'm 25 and live in Manchester with my partner and little girl who is 3 years old.

Found this site after looking up information on Citalopram which I've just been prescribed.

Starting tomorrow on 20mg, then have been advised after a few days to up to 40mg, and then after another few days up it to 60mg. Bit nervous after reading the information so far, but with any luck I'll be a better person for taking it :)

Looking forward to getting to know you all!

Taffy x

Hello Tafetta:welcome: to you!

I started on 60mg Citalopram right away, and did well on it after a shakey start!

Glad you joined us - pleased to meet you!

Hi there. There is so much help and support on here I'm sure it will be of great use to you. warning though it plays havoc with housework and other stuff. I was on citalopram for 2 years but only 20mg. I didn't find it helped that much but maybe I needed a higher dose. The first day I took it I had a strange reaction which passed after a few hours. I would be inclined to have someone with me for the first day if poss.

Hi Taffy

:welcome: aboard.

My personal advice would be to settle on 30mg before upping so quickly as you may find the side effects hard to deal with.

Hope we can be of some help anyway.
