    Citalopram and driving

    Morning all,

    I've felt unable to drive for over a year now, I'm just too, well, nervous really. I've been on Citalopram for about a year but am concerned that the drowsiness it promotes is a danger to myself and others if I get behind the wheel again.

    I did drive round to our village store a couple of months ago, a round trip of about 4km, and it took me nearly half an hour! I didn't go above 20mph and could have been mistaken for the cloth capped pensioner with his face pressed against the windscreen, clutching the steering wheel tightly with both, gloved, hands!! When I did eventually get home (having been overtaken by two ducks!) I was sweating, trembling and breathing heavily.

    Does anywone else have this problem?

    Happiness and light to you all,
    'Chopper'

    I saw her once, one little while, and then no more:
    ’Twas Eden’s light on Earth a while, and then no more.
    Amid the throng she passed along the meadow-floor:
    Spring seemed to smile on Earth awhile, and then no more;
    But whence she came, which way she went, what garb she wore
    I noted not; I gazed a while, and then no more!
