				I have taken citalopram for several years and it has helped.  I haven't had any severe side affects.  Hope it helps you, too.

				I have been on it for 5 weeks now.My physical symptoms are gone and I feel 90 percent better.The only side effect i have is the brain zap feeling.I was a nervous wreck before i took them now I can do whatever I want with no hesitation.I only take 10 mg and it has helped me lots.Hopefully it will help you too.Just give it time.It took me 2 weeks to feel a little better and 4 weeks to feel the full effect.
