Citalopram
anxiety and stress
"50 year old female here.  About 10 years I have been on this; it really takes the edge off! Much more calming.  Prior, I realized I was slowly becoming my father - irritable, impatient, angry, negative. Little things irritated me.  Felt 'rushed' all the time.  Got worse as I hit 40-ish.  Tried a couple of other anti-anxiety/depressants prior to Citalapram (Celexa), but couldn't handle side effects.  Being on Citalapram (20mg), which didn't take long to kick in, I did NOT experience any side effects!  And most important (for me), did not reduce my sex drive at all!  Yes, still achieve orgasms!  Tried to wean myself off it a couple times over the years, and went right back to 'slowly becoming my father'.  So I am staying on this."
