> I am taking citalopram and amitriptyline.

SSRIs like citalopram often cause vivid dreaming, for reasons that aren't entirely clear. They cause increased density of REMs in REM sleep, and also can cause brief nighttime awakenings (so brief that you don't remember waking up but you may be more likely to recall your dreams).
