Hi previously I had a problem with sleep. Doc prescribed me antidepressants. I had left those last year. Now I m not taking any antidepressants from last 1 year almost. As I use to fear about its side effects in near future in pregnancy and all. Right now I use to feel very tired, low energy, very bad sleep so I m again going to start citalopram at a very lowest dose. I use to fear about its sideeffects in conceiving and all. But I dnt have any option. Any suggestions?

Having a lot of sugary food?especially chocolate, which contains caffeine?can make you feel jumpy. ? Try a soothing aromatic bath before bedtime. Add 5 drops lavender oil and 3 drops ylang-ylang oil to warm bathwater and enjoy a nice soak.

Always keep a psychiatrist (good knowledgeable) opinion ready when you start and stop ny medications as the medications differs now and then, there are many new medications that has fewer side effects' as well no teratogenic potential. 2. When you plan to for pregnancy gett combined opinion of obstetrician, an md medicine and psychiatrist regarding medications and complications regarding childbirth. 3 most important. Why do you have depression. Treat it. Believe behavioural therapy is equally important as medications ir if will power allows you can be completely free of your symptoms.
