Dear MeXoXO,

I am so sorry that is happening to you. How awful! I have been on Citalopram for over ten years and have not experienced those brain zaps and headaches, even when I first started taking it. I did experience these things when I was on a Tricyclic Antidepressant. And it was really distressing. I hope these side effects wane as the weeks wear on. I read somewhere that it can take 6 weeks for some antidepressant side effects to pass if they are going to pass. Unfortunately I cannot remember the source of that information and so it not something that you or anyone could or should rely upon. What does your prescribing physician say about all this?

Sincerely yours, Yao Wen
