I'm so confused. I started back taking my citalopram again. I took it for 5months at the beginning of the year and I noticed weight gain but I honestly don't know if it was because I was happy and going out more or the drug that made me hungry. I also noticed when I did try to diet on it I would not lose AT ALL! I 'm 44 so I don't know if it is my age or the drug. I have researched citalopram and it gives soooo many different reports where most lose then others say it is not uncommon for people to gain 60pds in a year yikes!

I need real people who have taken citalopram to tell me their experience on it. I'm not as much afraid of the cravings I think I can control that. I'm terrified it will wreck metabolism forever!

I really feel so much better when taking it but I can not take it if it going to slow down my metabolism.
