>I took my 19 year old son to the Dr. 2 days ago for all the symptoms of depression. To name just a few...lack of motivation, tired all the time. inability to concentrate, etc. It was hard enough to get him up and get going before he started taking hte celxa. After reading about all these side effects, I am wondering if this is the answer. I was in hopes for him to become the perosn he once was. I know it is probably too soon to tell, but if he is so tired all the time, how can he get back to normallcy? He has only been taking celexa for 2 days. When he is awake he says he feels good....but he slept ALL day long and does not want to get up in the morning. How can a person expect to get on with a normal life if alls they feel like doing is sleeping?? Of course, when you are asleep you have NO WORRYS, but what kind of life is that?? Alot of what I have read about antidepressants say that you will be back to your old self again soon?? I just hope and pray that this is true, but after reading some of the negatives you all have described I am wondering if this is the right thing?????? I only want what is best for him!!!!!! I guess time will tell ?? Help, MOM
