I was taking mine in the morning but made me feel so tired I take them just before bedtime so they help me sleep! I was on them for a few years and they changed me to some new ones which didn't suit me had some bad side effects so went back on citropram

[heather27 in reply to luckydon]

Mine don't make me tired any more when first started over a year ago they did but now they don't I may be getting put on ES citalopram

[luckydon in reply to heather27]

Wots Es citropram I do sometimes get the feeling as if Iam not here it's weird

[heather27 in reply to luckydon]

My gp said it's like citalopram but less side effects

[luckydon in reply to heather27]

Oh rite! Never heard of them

[heather27 in reply to luckydon]

Hi heather27, What you are most likely experiencing is caused by the medication as well as anxiety. I use to feel very hot as well as have hot sweats that was known as "stress sweat". Once your body is back in balance, it should lessen.

[heather27 in reply to Agora1]

Thanks for reply what do you mean when my body is back in balance ?

[Agora1 in reply to heather27]

Once anxiety no longer controls you and your stress levels come down

you will no longer feel hot (unless by weather or fever) nor will you have

the stress sweat. You'll know because stress sweat as an odor of it's own.

Everything will go back to normal. x
