    Hi all.

    This seems like a tight knitted community, so apologies for the intrusion!

    I've been depressed for a while now, but it has become worse in the last year. I've had lots going on and at this point in time, I truly hold my hands up and say I've had enough.

    I went to the docs today and was prescribed with 20mg of Citalopram. As you can imagine, I've been researching like crazy this afternoon, but wondered if anyone had any experience of this particular anti depressant? I'd be most grateful for any thoughts.

    Hi Charlene

    firstly welcome to our family here, pull up a chair and join in :)

    Sometimes it hard to even admit you are depressed so well done for realising it and going and getting the help you need.

    I was on citalopram 30mg back in december, and it seem to help a little, in the short term but not long term, but as i am learning different people suit different meds, what can work for one person might not work for another, also remember it can take weeks for ads to even have an effect, but bare with it hun ;)

    take care

    xx

    I'm okay. Things are improving, but its hard work! Realised this morning that I've got dressed almost every day for a fortnight - thats a huge change, used to only get dressed once a week at most!

    Sorry to hear that a lot has been going on. You know you can get through it, I know it hurts but it will get better. We are here if you want to talk about anything.

    I was attacked at work today by a drunk guy. And he yelled at my supervisor and stole alcohol. I'm ok, but I was a bit shaken up for ages.

    Hi juno

    how u feelin now?

    Awful when someone hurts you and half the time they dont even realise there doing it, long as you ok tho. i can only relate by saying i was attacked at work a couple of years ago, while i was working in a well known cinema chain, i was on the bar, and a customer came up the stairs, i was all alone, and he asked where the toilet was, i seen nothing wrong with that, but he wanted me to show him, so seeing as it was just off the bar i went down this corridor and showed him where the mens was, before i knew it, he had me pressed against a wall, and was attacking me, he left, and i rang security, the manager came up and i broke down, as this reminded me off a previous attack.
    As i say hun, its awful wen people hurt ya, but hopefully it will make ya stronger, you could take up judo then youd be able to deal with the slightly rowdy customers :rotfl:

    take care hun xxx

    I think you should be really proud of yourself, you should look at how farr you have came, and realise your achievements, as you say you have gotten dressed everyday, thats a huge achievement, i mean i know it may not seem like it to most, but i remember when getting out of bed was a struggle, or even eating, everything is a struggle, you just have to learn how to deal with it i guess. One thing im not doing to well on atm lol

    Im just at a point where im realising alot, and alot is happening, last week was hard, this week has been even harder

    tbh i dont know where to start :o

    Thanks everyone. I'm fine. Luckily I'd called for my supervisor before the guy attacked me, so he arrived and saved me from anything really nasty. And we have CCTV, so I'm hoping he'll be caught.

    Do you think I'll have to go to court as a witness or anything?!
