I started on 20mg of Citalopram last Thursday and wanted to check about a couple of the side effects that I think I am experiencing. Firstly I am very tired but they may be related to the fact that I am exhausted. Secondly I feel a bit remote and fuzzy but whether that is because I have been sleeping so much I don't know. Finally I have pain, like period pains, in my lower abdomin. It isn't my period as I finished that last week but it is virtually the same feeling. The strange thing is that when I am sitting or lying down it goes away but as soon as I stand it starts up again. I just wanted to check whether all this was normal. I also seem to have a decreased appetite.
