I started on 10 mg and it is the only thing that helped me. I have quit smoking so my anxiety came back but everyday it is getting better and better.

I take 20mg of citalopram and it seems to have really helped me! You just have to give it time to work! It gets worse before it gets better but just stick it out! It does get better!

I started on 10 also because the side effects aren't fun, but eventually had to up dose to 20 because they say 10 isn't really even a dose. Just stick with it, it makes a huge difference!
