Re: 2nd attempt at citalopram
What is your drug history? I have currently started citalopram after coming off it last summer. It worked really well for me at 5mg, but I didn't like the side effects. Several months of horrible anxiety and other SSRIs later, and I decided that being anxiety free should be my number one priority.
5mg can still be therapeutic for some - no need to ramp it up to 20mg if you gain benefits from it.
I've had quetiapine as well. It really makes you sleepy, though I am in two minds as to whether it helps the anxiety or not. At doses below 100mg it doesn't have any antipsychotic properties - it only really acts as a strong antihistamine. Some people find the sedation can help anxiety though.
