Hi everyone. This is my first time using a Forum and I wanted to say thanks for the information you have taken time to provide, it's been very helpful.

I was prescribed Citalopram today but wanted to read up on the side effects before collecting my prescription. It doesnt make sense but I always check out the side effects even though I know I am only going to scare myself silly. I guess if I think I'm prepared for the worst then my reaction to the drug might not be as bad as I'm expecting.

I was diagnosed as having depression nearly six years ago and am on Prozac at the moment. I have also had one year of counselling, and gone through countless boxes of tissues!

I'm really hoping that this medication is the one..... I'm a bit nervous after reading your comments but I'll be brave like you guys and get my prescription tomorrow.

Thanks for being there... x :bighug1:

Hi Kellie

Thanks for your kind welcome.

I'm a total mess at the moment, but it's good to speak with people who understand.

I'm tired of feeling as though I dont fit in, constantly looking for acceptance, for people to understand that it's not about giving yourself a good shake.

I end up feeling as though I'm not as good as everyone else as I cant cope as they do. I try too hard to fit in and end up alientating people. I'm not looking to be "normal" (whatever that's meant to be!), or perfect, just want to be content and at peace with myself.

I really appreciate your support, it's good to talk.

Take care & thanks

PS I'm so sick of crying all the time, it's driving me bonkers!!!
