"i&#039;ve suffered from dysthymia and depression for years but never knew what i could do about it as my insurance does not cover mental health. i finally askedy gp if she had any suggestions and she informed me that walmart has some $4 generics. so she put me on citalopram 20mg. the difference in the beginning was definitely a step in the right direction. 6 weeks later she bumped me up to 40mg. the change was amazing. not only did i notice a difference in my attitude, my energy levels, my overall mood, so did others. my depression had impacted my work and personal life severely. people remarked how much they notice i&#039;ve changed. i tried switching to paxil at one point but that was awful. i went back to celexa and that&#039;s where i&#039;m staying!"
