Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. There are every possibility that your sleep pattern is influenced by depression drug citalopram. Over and above you could be anxious regarding taking the depression medicine. Both the above aspects are playing havoc with your sleep. I suggest you to consult your psychiatrist for a change of depressant. Secondly sleep pattern heavily depends on physical exercise, activities and stress free mind. I also suggest you to consult a psychotherapist for relaxation therapy.
