Hello Tinkers

yes l am on citalopram, have been for quite a few years now. They can take upto 3 weeks to get into the system, stay with it and you will notice the panicky feeling start to deminish....although saying that if l have a situation arrising l get a bit panicky first thing as l wake up in the morning but it goes:o)
Good luck:o)

I take them, it took about a week to start kicking in. I felt no different those first weeks, well maybe a bit giggly on and off lol !

They really made a differance, and I'm still on them through choice 2 years on. Just the lowest dose, but it does take the edge off the anxiety which made me so ill at the time :-)

about 14 days to become really effective - i guess you had a break after the others before startings(o of course your system may low on probably seratonin or whatever their chemical )

Stick with it, it will help
