SSRIs and going to the loo more. Is it just me?

[TanyaandGreg]

I don’t know if this is something else or the citalopram. I’m only on 10mg but I don’t remember it being as bad as this before. I have to avoid drinking any liquid the whole evening from 6pm to avoid waking in the night to go for a pee and that’s with going before I go to bed around 11-12. I’m only in my 30s! No children or pelvic floor issues. Is this common?

I’ve been on Sertraline since November and find that I have to go to the loo at least twice during the night now. It’s very annoying!

I’m glad it’s not just me! I very rarely drink but if I do have a glass of wine it’s at least 2 trips to the loo now so I just don’t bother.
