Hello dear,
Thanks for the query. I will try to provide you my best possible advice.
I have thoroughly gone through your query, Since you are taking
citalopram tablets for the
anxiety relief, I think that in your case possible reason for
Bruxism (grinding of teeth) is
stress,anxiety and disruptive dreams.
As we all know that curing the cause cures the disease.
-Try to be calm and relax because it is only you who can fight with your mental stress and anxiety.
-Maintain a healthy lifestyle to help manage stress — eat a healthy diet, exercise regularly and get enough sleep. Having a healthy lifestyle will help you manage periods of high stress.
-Avoid alcohol as it tends to intensify the bruxism.
-Avoid grinding in in the day and train yourself not to clench knowingly.
-Do the works that make you happy, visit the places where you find peace of mind and happiness.
-Give your mind a house full dose of joy everyday and I am sure in few weeks you wont need any medicines to reduce anxiety or to sleep and also wont have any disruptive dreams again.
-Drink plenty of water and other fluids as it will help to re-energize you.
And I also suggest you to visit a
dentist so that he/she can provide you the suitable treatment e.g. night guard or selective grinding of teeth or any other.
Hope this will help you. If there is any more query or question regarding this in your mind, you are always welcome .
Take Care :-))
