"i started citalopram 10 mg just a couple of days ago  for depression. very pleased. i started to feel much better the very next day. i am  sleeping better than before. i am not as sad, or frustrated. i&#039;m not crying every day. the best part is that i really haven&#039;t experienced any bad side effects at all. i actually think is also helping  my ibs too. i strongly recommend this medication. i was hesitant to try it because i was afraid of possible side effects. i am a female. i am 62 years old, but i am very active and like to stay active. every person is different and reacts different to medications. i think it&#039;s worth the try!!!!"
