Started citalopram 20mg two weeks ago for (late diagnosed) PND. Took me ages to go to the doctor as I wasn't keen on medication, tried various 'getting a grip' methods etc. Doc prescribed it, says it takes 3-4 weeks to work properly, and the first two weeks would be hell with side effects.
In fact from about 4 days in I've felt on top of the world, better than I have in years. Bar a bit of nausea and insomnia, no side effects either. I'm torn between being utterly thrilled and worried that it can't possibly be real and is all in my head/ some kind of psychological effect from finally having my misery recognised, and it's all going to come crashing down soon.
Give me a shake?
