Citalopram
generalized anxiety disorde
"Been on citalopram for 6 months now.  I tried to beat anxiety for years, constantly battling my thoughts, counselling, CBT, exercise etc... In the end I gave up and went on medication.  The first week was HELL!  Jaw clenching, extreme thirst, lethargic, excessive yawning, exhausted... I nearly came off them! Even after 4 weeks I wasn't sure if they were doing anything.  My advice is stick it out!  After about 2 months I noticed the full effects.  I wasn't crying anymore, wasn't as angry or impatient, didn't worry over everything anymore! I fall asleep within 10 minutes when I used to be awake most of the night and unable to sleep! Situations that I'd usually get very stressed out over are now much easier, and I'm now much more laid back :)"
