Hi
I have posted on here a few times . I really struggle with health anxiety but this is the worst I have ever been . I am constantly scanning my body and my children and had numerous panic this last 6 months .
I previously was on citalopram but came off it a year ago . My gp and a psychiatrist I have access too via work both think I need to try escitalopram now . I am also doing cbt but not seeing any benefits
I really struggled going on citalopram and really really anxious to start the new tablets but know I really have too .
problem is when . I am due to go away on 28th July for a week to see family . Do you think I should start now or wait till I back . So worried I will be way worse and won’t cope with my time away. My gp says start now and side effects only a few days but I know from past experience it was more than that over 2-3 weeks at least .
Any help or anyone on escitalopram that can give positive results. I really don’t need to hear bad stories
