I was on citalopram and I found it made me tired all the time, despite the amount of sleep I got.. grr

For the first week or so I felt really sick too, I didnt even like the sound or smell of food (which is odd for me!) but it does sound like one of the better ones out there.

I have barely eaten for the past 4 days..less than I usually would

you will be ok, keep positive

Yea that sounds about right, your hunger will slowly come back in a week or so. And despite that and the tiredness stick too them because they do work and you will feel better about everything Smile

I'm slowly getting my appetite back, thank goodness. My friend doesn't want me to loose any more weight.

I have stopped taking the citalopram and the zopiclone after the night at the hospital...that night gave me a huge wake up call and everyone says i was just a silly girl who was bored...not someone who is depressed...it's quite confusing right now..but i suppose they're right. I act how people think I should act. If I say I could be depressed, then I become obsessed with it all and then I change...sigh..

For example, when I was at school I did food and nutrition, then I became obsessed with food and what's good and bad..then was afraid to eat some things..
Also I did an assignment on anorexia and bulimia, and became obsessed with them as well..

so who knows what i'm really like. I'm a sponge who soaks up things people say and things i read...then I become obsessed with it all....sad aye..

i'll never become so bad but yeah, i think i just need to keep myself occupied and I need to eat more.
