I've been on Citalopram, but it was short lived because I had such a weird side effect from it (lock jaw) and was so rare to experience that it wasn't even listed on the information leaflet. Otherwise it would have been ok.

Just remember that everyone's experiences of medication is different. They affect us all differently. What may not work for one, may work for another.
I've been referred to therapy as well. The side affects that I'm having is headache, dry mouth , tiredness and numbness in hands and feet but I'm hoping that it goes away once I'm on it for a week.
