Okay, so, I know this is probably stupid, but... anxiety, right?


I've been taking 10mg citalopram since November for anxiety and depression. It's been a gamechanger for me - I've started living my life and being so much more productive than I ever was before. Basically, I love the stuff, but it hasn't quite helped with my panic attacks and compulsions the way I'd hoped it might. As such, and because I'm on a very low dose now, I've spoken to my GP and decided to go up to 20mg.


I tolerated the tablets really well when I started - had a couple of weeks of nausea and some ongoing fatigue that might just be the result of not being wired all the time. Still, I'm a bit afraid that the side effects might be more drastic, or that I won't be able to manage them this time - the usual anxiety stuff.


Anybody else got any experiences/words of encouragement?
