I was recently diagnosed with Mild Parkinson Syndrome. I have been taking Citalopram 10 mg for seven weeks. Started having depression past week when I wakeup and all day. However each evening at 5 pm depression goes away. Can anyone explain why it goes away in the evenings? Thanks.

Hi @mariemarie,
I moved your message about depression getting better in the evenings to this discussion about Parkinson's and Moods. I'm also tagging
@knightkris and @johnjames to bring them into the discussion as they too experience depression. It is interesting that your mood improves late in the day. Might this have something to do with when you take your medications? Does your energy level tend to improve as the day progesses? Just some thoughts as I grasp at straws.
