How long did it take for your side effects to subside? I'm on citalopram and my worst side effect is heavy head and brain fog. Who else has experienced this? was it on going or did it end? its definitely escalating my anxiety. I'm on my third dose. Thank you in advance x

I had the side effects the entire time I was on them which is why I came off them

. It intensified my anxiety and I could physically feel the switch in my brain when it kicked in each day . Everyone is different t though good luck with them x

I took this drug about 5 years ago and it took about 2/3 weeks for me to feel a bit better on it. I was then on it for about 1 year... It did help. Good luck
