Hiya all

This is day 2 of my therapy and this morning I felt so anxious!

My fiancé is really poorly at the moment, not man flu, he has tonsilitis, laringitis and a chest infection. When I found out yesterday I didn't react as badly as I would but I was still freaked out!!

Anyway I feel so anxious! He was still asleep an hour ago when I called his Mum just so I know how he is. She told me not to see him because he is contagious but she did told me that he is definatly on the mend and he slept alot better last night. I still feel flippin' anxious though!!!

I don't know whether if it's the meds or if my baby's unwell or whether it's both that's making me feel uber anxious. Does citalopram start making you anxious and low at day 2?

Hi
citalopram does cause higher anxiety its one of the side affects try to stay calm i no its easier said than done.
if you stick it out it does get easier
