:ohmy:Hey there,

Ive got anxiety/depression and hve been on citalopram and cbt for past 6 weeks. starting to feel a lot better. Thank god! Oddly though ive been wakin up soaked with night sweats. I hav to turn my pillow over and put a towel down. I dont know where this has come from but the last 5 nights has been the same. Though i dont feel stressed or particurley anxious. worried what it might be?! last night when i woke i took my temp and it was normal. Is it still my anxiety creepin through?? help plse xx:)

Hi Lee,

Welcome.

Night sweats. Sounds familiar. Fairly common side effect of anti-depressants.

From what I hear, it's the body's way of trying to detoxing itself. A bit like having a fever.

Good luck,

Markko

Hi leelee100 welcome to NMP

As markko has said night sweats can be common for some people on anti-depressants.
