Hi there

I'm new to this forum - so hello everyone!

I won't go into detail about my story here, but basically I've recently had a very bad relapse of anxiety and depression, and I've gone back on Citalopram. I've been on this medication twice before (I think!) and I really think it worked wonders - I didn't notice any side effects, and after weeks of using it I felt strong enough to go back to work, and then only a few months down the line I would suddenly realise I hadn't been worrying recently.

However, I've now been taking it again for 2 months, and I don't feel any benefit. I'm more anxious than I've ever been - I'm unable to work, and have moved back with my parents. Every day is a struggle. Does anyone know if it can stop working if you have been off and on the drug several times, or am I possibly just in a worse place this time and need a higher dose?

Many thanks for any advice
