"been on citalopram for 2 and a half months now. for the first week it gave me bad lower jaw pain for a few hours after taking and woke up several times in the night, but this did quickly settle. also during day 2 and 3 i felt completely numbed to the world as if in a daze, but during week 2 felt like i had awoken a new person. for the next 3-4 weeks i felt on top of the world and like i could do anything. my anxiety is mostly in check but over the last 2 weeks i have felt my depressive mood swings taking hold again at times. might need to go back for a higher dosage.
other than that only lasting side effects are muscle twitching before i fall asleep, and i do sometimes wake up for no reason though can quickly fall back to sleep again."
