hi there,
appologies if this has been posted before, i have used Escitalopram (aka cipralex) twice before, for anxiety, over the last 3 years both times with success after a couple of weeks. this latest time was put on citalopram 10mg which took a good 3 weeks to kick in then kinda slid back to square one after a couple of good weeks, upped to 20mg then same scenario took a while to kick in, a couple of good weeks, then yesterday i felt a wave of adrenaline/anxiety while at work (for no apparent reason) now i feel the anxiety coming back. i would be interested to hear how people get on, i'm toying with coming off present med getting it out of my system seeing where i'm at then going back onto cipralex as i know these work. Also i have 2 young kids (2 & 4) whose days start early which doesnt help.
thanks for listening.
