Hi. Sorry if there are loads of threads about this but I'm new here and desperate to know.

I've been on 40mg of Citalopram for about 6 months and 20mg for years before that. I've recently been going through GAD hell along with some OCD. 3 months ago I was prescribed 8mg Diazepam per day to help but already this seems to be losing it's effect and bad thoughts go constantly round in my head.

Went to see my doctor and we decided between us to switch to Escitalopram 20mg with immediate effect.

Does anybody have a similar experience or knowledge of what to expect and how good the Es is?

Thanks and hello on my first post
