Wow, how wonderful to find this site!!
I Have suffered anxiety all my life, but only recently have I become more aware of what I am sufferring from.
I had two months sick from work, after the break up of a relationship, and really being unable to cope with work.
The doctor singed me off weekly and prescribed me Citalopram 20mg. Because of phobias about what the citalopram would do to my brain and personality. I have concerns that it will change me forever, and that I will be fundamentally changed. as a result I never took a single tablet!
I am fearful!
I have been lying to the doc that I have been taking the meds. I have also been seeing a therapist.
I really want to overcome my anxiety! I am soooo sick of it ruling my life!! I am now considering taking the meds. but don't know what to do.
I would really appreciate any advice you guys have!
