CITALOPRAM vs LORAZEPAM

I graduated a year ago and have applied for constant entry level positions and wake up everyday to new rejection emails. I have no savings. I’ve never had a boyfriend. The only constant companion I’ve had in my life is depression and my citalopram pills. My friends are successful and happy and I lay

I have been taking Citalopram for more than 4 years.

Hi guys, I've been taking Celexa 10mg for nearly a year now and just wanted to share my experience here. I was reading posts on this subreddit religiously before telling my doctor I wanted to try meds, so I thought this could be helpful to anyone in the position I was in then. My symptoms before sta

I posted on here a while back (http://www.reddit.com/r/depression/comments/1jyokh/what_does_it_feel_like_trigger_warning/) about how I felt on a regular basis. That was when I still kept my feelings a secret from almost everyone, including my family. Since then I've spoken with them and started taki

This has been a huge step for me. For at least 2, maybe 3 months, I've allowed my sink to pile up and only cleaned utensils the very moment I needed them. Today I suddenly had the urge to go clean all of it up and wipe down my tabletops. It's incredible. I'm only 2 weeks in but citalopram is letting

some days ago I cut my veins, I’m here cause that didn’t work, Now I have an horrible scar, I’m tired of trying, actually I’m medicated with duloxetina citalopram n risperidona (it’s like we write them in my country) but they aren’t working, my first try was when I was a kid 3-4 it’s strange that a

Doctor thought maybe I was over medicated and discontinued my mood drugs. Just got off citalopram completely. Will start going off wellbutrin next week. I feel wayyyyy better. Not even any suicidal thoughts in the past week. . Who would thought it was the antidepressants causing the depression. Inst

Hey guys, I’m trying to create a public subreddit dedicated to citalopram, and for that I need karma. Please consider helping me by upvoting this post and my post at r/freekarma4u . I know this might be far-fetched, but all I want to do is help people by creating a dedicated place to post their ques

Catatonia isn’t just “not moving” — it’s a life-threatening neuropsychiatric syndrome that can look wildly different depending on the person. Some people freeze up. Others become agitated. Some collapse into seizures. I’ve lived through both extremes — and I’m sharing this to raise awareness for any

Every person I know who has bp and people I see online all have similar experiences with going cold turkey and being on and off their meds. I don't know why I personally struggle, I take my meds for months and then one day just stop, and yeah, it makes me feel like shit. Even right now I am in a low

I know you guys are working really hard, and it's been a shitty month for all of us, but it feels like you forgot about all of your effects except for the side ones. Like the ones where you maybe stop me from writing a novel for 35 hours straight and getting fired, or maybe throw me a rope when I si

My husband recently went to the psych ward and was diagnosed with unidentified psychotic disorder and catatonia. He was in the hospital a total of 46 days. He thinks the hospital was divine intervention and he taught the psychiatrist all the ideas on how to contain him and now they practice his idea

My psychiatrist just prescribed me Lamotrigine, He started me at a low dose 25mg before bed. I've never taken this medicine before and I don't know what to expect. How long will it take for me to feel better after taking it? What are the side effects? Currently I'm taking Lithium 200mg ×2 Lorazepa

Since when lorazepam kills delusions? I don't know what to google or what this means. If it's not dopamine, then it's not psychiatric? Could be neurological? I sure as hell have been having neurological symptoms, like my head (painlessly, so not dystonia) twisting to the right, memory loss, weird sm

Hello, I was diagnosed with schizophrenia in 2017, when I was 21 years old. I went through an active psychotic episode that lasted for about two years, which eventually led to an inpatient stay in a closed psychiatric ward. That happened after a suicide attempt — I had taken my father’s gun and inte
