She said she slept more deeply so less likely to wake up due to noises,etc. it was very helpful to her for anxiety too. I wish you well honey hope this works for you.Katherine xHi Katherine,How are you doing?That's so encouraging, thank you so much xHi discogirl,I’m ok thanks, I’ve been through some major upheavals including a break up recently but at least I’ve settled on the right type and dose of HRT so I’ll be ok. In terms of anti depressants it can be a case of trial and error until you find one that suits you. I have heard good things about citalopram, sertraline and Prozac although I’ve never tried any of them myself xHi KatherineI'm sorry about all the upheaval you've had. I'm glad you're on the right type and dose of hrt at last. What type and dose did you settle on by the way? xxx

Hi Penguinthats such good advice.your insight has helped me so much. thank you x
hi Katherineits good youve settled on that. i was on gel and cyclogest until last nov time when i developed all the issues. so just started back on 1 pump of gel and utrogestan x
I haven't read any of the replies as I struggle if I hear negative things...All I wanted to say is that citalopram has literally saved my life.I'm on 15 mg and 3 months in. Started on 10mg, then to 15mg, 3 weeks ago.All the best x
