Citalopram

citalopram hydrobromide (30mg) for depression

I've been taking citalopram since 15 March. I started on 10 mg but pretty quickly had to go up to 30 mg. I got loads of horrid side effects. My panic attacks seemed to just get worse and I started getting suicidal thoughts. So the doctor reduced my dose a bit to 25 mg. It seemed to get a bit better then but I'm starting to have suicidal thoughts and panic attacks again. I wonder if anyone else has experience of this? And if it's normal and how long it will last for...
