Citalopram
"I have been taking citalopram just over 2 months. Within 3-4 wks, my panic attacks began to dissipate. I would feel 1 coming on, but it wouldn't build. Before treatment, my overall anxiety level had reached a pretty unbearable point, with constant cycles of panic and anxiety. Slowly, the things that trigger those feelings stopped having the same effect. Experienced quite a few side effects at the start, but they DID go away after about 3 weeks. In the past 2 weeks I went from 10mg to 20mg, as my anxiety was creeping back in. But I'm adjusting well with the dose. People have noticed a complete shift in my attitude, and I finally have some inner calm to rediscover me. post-panic/anxiety!"
