It is not at all likely your problem is due to citalopram. With Citalopram (Celexa), experts estimate that it can take up to 10-14 days for the drug to fully leave the body. So there has been none of that medicine for longer than 4.5 years. On the other hand, the indications for this medicine are in a population with high anxiety, hypocondria, and axiety greater than the general population. I would susggest you ask the neurologist to refer you to a neuro-ophthalmologist for evaluation.

I have been taking Citalopram (antidepressent) for years now, 40mg daily. The depressive mood comes and goes! But I wonder if I stop taking it gradually will there be withdrawal symptoms? Is there dependency on this medicine? I was thinking for instance to decrease it 5mg every two weeks or a month.

What's stodgy food? Depression can cause loss of appetite. Can also make one eat more. Funny thing, depression. There are also side effects when you start medication, and it takes a while before the effects begin. Sometimes they affect appetite -- can make you want to eat everything that isn't tied down or nothing at all. Can go both ways. Are you in therapy as well?

1 mixture of (S)-Citalopram and (R)-Citalopram]; Escitalopram [(S)-Citalopram) is a pure enantiomer. The dosages for Escitalopram are typically 1/2 of those for Citalopram, and there are fewer side effects, suggesting that most side effects come from the (R)-enantiomer.'' Basically escitalopram is the new citalopram with less side-effects and requires only half the dosage and I think it is the reason for it's cheaper price. -http://en.wikipedia.

but after huge waves of depression due to the lack of energy,fatiuge ect i was totaly exhasted so i started to take this new citalopram the doctor prescribed.

Hi just wondering if anybody is/has been prescribed citalopram for anxiety and how they got on with it?

Citalopram is very good for anxiety and carries far fewer side effects than some of the other anti-d's but each person reacts differently to it, like any drug, so we can't say for sure how your body will respond, you may not have a single side effect from it and it may work well for you.
