citalopram

[blsckie]

does anyone suffer with brain fog and how do you cope with it dont know wether its tireness from tables or lack of sleep

Citalopram does not give me brain-fog. Lack of sleep definitely does!

It gave me appalling brain fog in the end. Which was a shame because it was the only AD that really got me back on my feet and made me feel like myself initially. I had to give up doing a PhD because I couldn't string two sentences together. I also slept and slept and slept - in the end, I felt drugged up on it.

Have you been on it for a while?

If you choose to come off it, taper really really slowly so you don't get any side effects.
IME Seroxat didn't give brain fog - the opposite - I felt very intellectually sharp but lacking in emotions. Bloody lottery isn't it?

dr put me on melatronin to help me to sleep its not sleeping tablet but it ats whydoes help lot with sleep th im not sure which tablets causing iwould be up half night with out it just wish i knew what to do dont want different tables to suffer all side effects how long befor citalopram starts to kick in been on 20m for week then 30mg now narsly week

need some reassurence has anyone felt like citalopram not working about to give up then they kicked in . i was on citalopram for few yrs no bother but this time because dr wanted to try different tablet that didnt work for me cant seem to pull myself out of this am i expecting to much been on 20mg for week then up to 30 for week but feel lie im getting worse especially socialising thanks
