I'm just over week 6 on 20mg of citalopram and I am not consistently sleeping well. I wake up on the dot 2.30am and then drift in and out of sleep. I occasionally take 5mg of Melatonin which does help and I actually get a decent night doing that. Also my weight has crept up by a couple of pounds and my diet and appetite has not changed (maybe a bit more wine) thanks in advance for any help. BTW the skin prickling sensation has now gone, I think it's to do with menopausal hot flushes, which I thought I'd come to the end after 10 years but apparently not! Has anyone else noticed that they feel more clear-headed and motivated on citalopram?
