So the past two months i have been suffering with really bad anxiety the drs put me on 20mg of citalopram to help the anxiety I taken them for 4 weeks and I really couldn't cope with them making me feel the way they did I felt so bad inside I haven't taken any medication for 3 days now and slowly starting to feel like myself again other than really weird dreams. I hope everyone gets the help they need it's out there belive me there's light at the end of the tunnel keep strong your stronger than you think.

Why don't you go back and see if you can try something else? There are other things that may help. I was on a low dose of sertraline which really helped me!!

I was put on 50 mg. but for the first week I took half the tablet then went on to the 50 after that. Felt a little bit sick but that wore off after a few days. You can have vivid dreams so take the dose on a morning that way it shouldn't affect your sleep.
