I have recently stopped taking Citalopram over 10 days, since then I've had a permanent headache which has lasted 4 weeks to date and seen me visit A&E twice. Currently I have been prescribed and am taking : Morphine, Voltarol, CO-codomol and Sodium Valproate which are only providing limited relief. I am also seeing a Neurologist and Psychiatrist who as of yet have failed to diagnose the problem. Has anyone had similar effect ? If so, what was the diagnosis and resolution ?

Citalopram: I've been taking this for two-and-a-half weeks now, with the last ten days being on 20mg. While the hand-wringing anxiety and depressed feeling seems to be fading, I am having problems with the continual desire for sleep. I've tried taking it four hours before going to bed, and last night I slept for 13 straight hours. Then when I get up, I have very little inclination to do anything other than look at the wall or mindless television. Has anyone else had these effects with Citalopram and did they get better?

You're not my psychiatrist, and I'm not your patient. But I need some help evaluating my feelings and setting my dosage within the limits my psychiatrist has prescribed. [more inside]
