Citalopram HBR 10MG for anxiety
My neuro prescribed the above captioned drug a week ago for anxiety. I have had constant nausea, can't sleep at nite and am constantly tired. Has anyone had any experience with this drug?

Hi Dan,
Yes, Citalopram turned me into an apathetic zombie who couldn't string two words together. I lost a 14 year relationship and even my family stopped calling because I was impossible to talk to. I remember the vivid dreams causing disturbed sleep, so even sleeping excessively still leaves one tired. In my experience an hateful medication, and one of which I now claim allergy to. Dave. |

I think that it's quite the brain flat-liner. I quickly changed course after a brief prescription.
Neurologists still won't jump on the cannabis wagon but being in NY have you considered applying for a MM card? I am in a state that it is legal. It works wonders for me; depression, anxiety, sleep, constipation, rigidity, pain, nausea. It's a huge anti-inflammatory. It's neuro-protective (government patent) You feel the effects instantly (when inhaled). It takes some practice to find the right dose/strain since it's been vilified so long and there is not much guidance. I eat edibles in the am and at occasionally just after lunch. Vaporize in the evenings. I'm not stoned at all, that's not the objective. I have titrated to an effective medicinal dose. My strains are high in CBD. Less psychoactive. I have 3 strains total; an uplifting sativa dominant, balanced strain high in cbd (I like this the best) and a strain (Indica) dominant for evening relaxation. Edibles last 4-6 hours/vape or smoke about 2.5 hours. What are the long term effects? Quite frankly, I don't care. It's been six months of almost daily use for me. In fact after having a steady dose, I feel more and more back to normal. This disease sucks and I feel so, so much better. I would be taking Citalapram and Tramadol daily anyhow, which is better? My liver says, go green. If your job/state allows you have the green light to go green. After reading the forums about Sinemet and the short honeymoon period, I have successfully reduced my dose from 2.5 x 3 daily (25-100) Sinemet to 1.0 x 3 daily. That's a direct result of the cannabis relieving me of the symptoms. I'll probably sound like a broken record after a while on this forum but it has changed my life for the better. Good luck. |
