what should i expect from my AD?...do I need to up the dose?

[mulranno]

I have had pnd twice in the past for which I took citalopran. This depression is the result of grief from a signicant, untimely and sudden bereavement. I went on to flut 20mg at Christmas which took the edge off it ie the wild anger/rage...but i wonder if i should up the dose...i still have symptoms, exhaustion, confusion, anger unable to get stuff done...have jsut been "let go" from a project I was working on...well aware that I have fallen well short of the mark. Should I just go back and up the dose...or should I try to tough it out on this dose and try to do other stuff (exercise, better diet etc)...although I feel I havent the energy to do this

I take 40mg, but did not put up my dose without seeing my GP first. Why don't you think about going back and say you need some extra help - maybe counselling, or CBT...?

Sorry, hit the button too fast. Wanted to add that sorry you are feeling so crap - its hard, but you will be OK. Its tough now, but there is a brighter future ahead. You will get your life back. Honest.
