I have just been prescribed citalopram for my depression and i am concerned that it may make me feel like i did while on seroxat wich was total lack of emotion and that was worse than the depression.Its been years since i took any anti-depressant,so i guess im just wanting some feedback from anyone whose taken it.I thank you in advance for any replies .Baz

I never had that particular medication but hope it works for you...if not there are so many new medications now a days...your doctor should be able to find something that helps you!! without making you numb...

I take its close relative escitalopram (or maybe it's the same stuff) and I've not had anything like that, but people react differently to drugs anyway. Why not give it a go? If you find it has similar results to seroxat, then stop taking it and try something else

We have been on Citalopram for about 15 years,
you have to wait about 6 weeks for it to work Please give it a fair go, before you give up !!!
