I have been on citalopram for coming up to 3 weeks now. Since being on them I have been constantly plagued by thoughts of hurting myself. I have even overdosed on ibuprofen (I was checked over in hospital for this one, I did take 64), st johns wort (did take 26, 300mg but didn't tell anybody) and have even taken 5 one-a-day allergy tablets (again didn't tell anybody about this one either). I have also cut myself, though they are mainly scratches, apart from the one on my wrist which is small.
Though I still feel low this morning, with not much energy I haven't thought about hurting myself at all. I have been quite impressed and cannot explain it. Is this a sign that te citalopram is beginning to work.
