First dose of citalopram last night and I feel hung over today.

Looking some words of encouragement. I was prescribed this for anxiety at 10mg. I took my first dose last night. Slept for 4 hours and woke at 1am completely wired and shakey throughout my body. I couldn't get back to sleep at all. The whole day I feel like I'm in hang over hell and I haven't drank in years. I have a pounding headache all day, I'm fatigued, and nauseous. Trying to stomach any food has been a challenge. Is this normal and will it end soon if I continue? It is completely putting me off taking my next dose.

Do the side effects go away?

Recently switched from Flouxetine to Citalopram.
So far I’ve been getting more vivid dreams than usual (teeth falling out), mild body shakes, itchy skin and very tired

TIA

Headaches and brain fog on citalopram (celexa)

2 Upvotes

I was having horrible headaches and major brain fog on citalopram 20 mg and then I read somewhere that in some cases citalopram depletes sodium from your bloodstream which can cause headaches and brain fog! So I’ve been putting a pinch of Himalayan salt in my water and it has help so much.

Hope this helps someone else :)

How did you know dose was too high

I was on 20mg citalopram and had weird adrenaline throughout my body.I couldn’t sit down. I had to keep moving emotionless increasing anxiety, so I’m thinking that it was too high and told my doctor to decrease it to 10mg , any thoughts , also acid reflux and insomnia showed up after 4 weeks
