Citalopram feeling too happy?

Hi everyone started citalopram about 6 weeks ago the last 2 weeks I have started seeing the effects of taking it and feel like I am too happy almost euphoric! Things have happened within my family the last few days which have been very worrying to me but I haven't had the usual breakdown I would normally have, I haven't cried or anything. Is this normal should I be worried that am feeling so well or is this exactly what the tablet is ment to be doing. I have went from not being able to get out of bed feeling suicidal some days to feeling absolutely amazing but now I feel so good it's making me worry that there is something wrong. Any opinions thanks x

I remember this happening when I first started taking Citalopram. It does level out over time through

Pressed post too soon! I think it can take a couple of months of medication for the steadier moods. It can take the edge off your emotions so the not crying sounds like part of that (I also realised after coming off the meds that I didn’t laugh as much either but not sure if that was a side effect or just my life at the time)
