Does Citalopram work too well? Does anyone else on the drug find themselves just a bit too relaxed about stuff?

I feel that I have lost some drive, and I'm wondering if this is down to Citalopram. The drug seems to have done a marvellous job of helping me overcome a depressive episode. I am far, far more productive than I would be if I were depressed, but I feel there is something preventing me from pushing myself. I'm not sure if this is good or bad, but it feels wrong. Does anyone have similar experience? Is this Citalopram or just me?

hi John, how long have you been on it and what dose? I've read a lot of people feel like this but if its still before 8 weeks, it could be a side effect?

Hi ChunkyButt85, I've been on the drug for 10 or 11 months. I did experience a few physical side effects at the beginning. This feels different - much vaguer, which is why I'm not sure if it is even a thing.
