Hi, new to this forum. Really just looking for advice. I have PND and have just got prescription for 20mg of citralopram. Do I take it or not? That really seems to be the question.
Have been on a couple of forums and most seem pretty negative. I suppose positive people tend not trawl the net searching for help, so maybe that's all I will find.
A lot of people are talking about the adverse side-effects, ie loss of appetite, loss of sex drive, apathy towards life etc etc. I have these already, hence the reason I'm about to take them, so totally confused now.
Had my baby 11months ago, and soldiered on being supermum/wife/woman, until now. Kind of forgot myself in the whole process. Have lost tons of weight, can't eat, can't sleep, can't relax, am bitchy as hell, angry, guilty, irrational and probably so many more things that I'm not remembering due to my rubbish short-term memory.
So, do I take these?
All advice welcome
