In reply to Celexa - To take or not to take..., posted by Tom on May 5, 1999, at 15:34:19
Hi Tom, give Celexa a try. I've been on it for 3 weeks now and feel much better. I took prozac for about a year a few years ago, which worked for me, but I didn't like the side effects. Celexa seems to work in a more subtle way: the anxiety just leveled off within the first few days,although I still felt depressed. Gradually, however, I realized I was feeling much better and right now I can't imagine NOT taking this drug! I'm feeling much more social and assertive. Side effects for me: feeling sluggish (although better now than when I first started) and some insomnia. I'm hoping this gets better. A bonus for me is that I've lost 5 pounds without even trying! Imagine what could happen if I could get up the energy to get to the gym! Anywy, good luck.
