In reply to SSRI's making me more anxious!!, posted by momlucyzoe on October 28, 2008, at 15:49:50
How long ago did you start citalopram? What dose?
Increased anxiety and panic attacks can occur when starting an SSRI. Starting at a low dose and gradually increasing may decrease these symptoms.> I suffer from GAD, social phobia and varying degrees of agoraphobia and panic. I stared taking Citalopram/Celexa for anxiety and depression and even though I haven't had a panic attack in years, i've started having them again! I can't stand it and I think I need to wean off the Citalopram.
