whats going on i'm really confused now??

i have been trying really hard to keep myself together since the doctors told me they think i have adhd or bipolar.
i've been taking citalopram for about 8 weeks now, and they aren't doing me any good at all.
my mum says i'm alot more restless than usual, and i have been having delusions about people, and hearing things and seeing things. however this did happen to me before i started taking them. i just feel toooo hyper and intense!!
what is happening to me??

It sounds like you are having bad side effects from the citalopram. I would suggest that you contact your Dr. asap, and get off that med., from what you have written, it sounds like you dont need something to make you more hyper, you need just the opposite.

I am taking Quetiapine, which slows me down, and stops my mind from racing, and actually didnt effect my appetite, however you will experience weight gain.

I strongly suggest that you contact your Dr., its not only hard on the body to have those kind of side effects, but also on your mind.

Let us know how it goes.
