Hiya All

Can anyone help please I have been on Citalopram 20mgs for about 8 weeks now but over the past two weeks have noticed a return of my negative symptoms ie mainly the waking in the early hours a bit anxious etc.

Spoke to Doc today because I want to return to work because I want so much to get better, he advised me to increase the dosage to 40 mgs and has given me these on my new prescription.

I have taken one now, I am a bit concerned over doubling the dose straight away but doc said that 20mgs is not a massive dose for depression and anxiety. He has made me take the next three weeks off work to make sure I am ok on the increased dose and has asked to see me again before I return to work.

Basically I want to know two things,

1. Has anyone ever taken this doseage and what did it make you feel like and
2. Did you get better on these tablets after increasing the dose.

Many many thanks

Heather
