citalopram did nothing at all for or to me except turn me into a panda (big black circles round my eyes) , I persevered with it for month and actually felt better when I stopped taking it. that said everyone is different and it may well be just the thing to help you.

Do you read the leaflet when you take a headache tablet, it has just the same loopy things that can happen. If you read the side effects you will get them because its in your head , they are only covering themselves the med companies they don't all happen.
