Citalopram - new meds

[Movielife]

Hi all


About 8 days in to 10mg daily dose.


Before this, I had problems on propranolol...so we stopped that.


I had about 4-5 weeks off meds and felt normal...best I've felt in a while physically, but low low moods.


So, the GP thinks citalopram should help.


My mood isn't as bad, but boy are these side effects kicking in...never had some of these:


- Lack of appetite
- Trembling in the AM before I take it
- Pins and needles in the night (nothing major)
- Worrying (probably due to physical symptoms)
- Floaty odd feeling


It calms (usually after I take the tablet) but is this usual?


It is just odd....I don't like it. But I am only 8 days in.


Cheers

Early days, the side effects can be very strange at this point, they should pass though after a few more weeks, and hopefully by week 6 you'll be feeling the benefits of them. Stick with it
