hi riroar, never heard of this before, a few of our friends are on citalopram, none have any effect with them, have you had your thyroid checked? can have this effect, jasper xx

Hello

I believe this can be a side effect with some meds even though it dent affect many however I would certainly speak to your doctor about it because it sounds like if they are affecting you this way then you need to look at a different medication

I know it will be an anxious time but if it is the meds that are the cause then once you get them sorted your hair will grow back again x
