Citalopram - advice please

Hey guys. I've been on 20mg of citalopram for 6 weeks now and I'm still waiting for it to 'kick in' or whatever. I don't expect miracles and understand that AD's take time to work and that a lot of patience and perseverance is required. But I'm starting to get a little frustrated. I know it's not difficult to take a pill once a day but when it just doesn't seem to help, it seems totally pointless, ya know? 6 weeks isn't a long time in the grand scheme of things, but surely they should be starting to take effect by now? All they seem to be doing in fact is making me feel sick and lowering my sex drive to virtually zero, mucho fun lol!

Does anyone here have any experience of taking citalopram and how long it takes to work etc? I'm seeing my GP on thursday and am going to ask her if I can have my dosage increased or perhaps swap onto something else. Or just come off the bloody things all together!

Any advice at all would be great.

Thank you

Cx
