Re: Update on 30 mg citalopram - 10 weeks in
I hope things improve. Let me make one suggestion: stay for at least two weeks at each new dose level. For me, at 10mg, the turning point (when I started to round the corner and feel better) came after two weeks. The second week was actually a pretty rough time- definitely worse than the first. Then things got noticeably better.
On 20mg, I again went through giddiness, wired/tired, deep anxiety, and now I think I feel improvement about one week past going to the new dose. I can report that the positive feelings came on rather suddenly. There was a definite feeling of weight lifted and less anxiety, and for me it was very noticeable, even down to the time of day when it happened. I am now waiting anxiously to see if things have really settled! I think so... I hope so. For one thing, I woke up thinking about something other than anxiety, which was very nice.
Hang in there, I think you're making good progress!
