Hi Emy,

Welcome to NMP. Many here will be able to relate how you are feeling and will give their support. I can't give advice on this particular med as I have never been on it but if I were you I would call your doctor and tell them how you are feeling.

Take care,

Laura

Hi Emy,

Oh, sorry didn't know about that problem. I'm going to private message you.

Hi Emy,

Welcome to NMP, Citralopram can take up to 6 weeks before you feel the full benefits and you often feel worse before you feel better during the first few weeks.

There is a section in the forum about this med, have a look around it

Hope you feel better soon
