In reply to Re: Depression / Celexa and Remeron, posted by Mark on March 25, 1999, at 6:14:36
I am a 20 year old female who has been prescribed Celexa for my depression. My doctor told me my condition was chemical and hereditary condition. I am so glad I was prescribed this medication, because it has changed my life in so many ways. I used to sit around and mope around the house, thinking no onw loved me, and no one was my friend. Everything was "me, me, me", and I was continually thinking about suicide. I thought no one understood me, and I had absolutely no help or hope in the world, and I might as well kill meself and make everyone happy. But now that I have discovered this medication, I am happy to announce that I am almost completely over my condition. It has taken me about five months of counselling and doctor's visits, but I am sure that I am almost completely cured. I cannot thank that medical communtiy enough for making this wonder durg that has changed my life and those around me forever. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart.

What was wrong with me I would ask myself over and over again why can't I function like a normal person. Then I would ask myself what is normal. For years I could hide my depression and it was my secret, but for the past 3 years it has gotten to the point I can no longer hide. It has destroyed me from the inside out. All I want to do is hide from the world and everybody in it. My bedroom is my hiding place there I feel secure. I sleep 14 to 15 hrs. a day. I am so tired I am unable to complete the most minute task. My mental status is shot. I can hardly remember what I just said and I cannot concentrate on anything. I'm presently taking Celexa 20mg. and remeron 15mg. Every time I go back to the doctor he tries another drug. I've been on prozac, zoloft, paxil, etc. They seem to help with the moodswings but I am so tired all the time. If anybody has any suggestion I would deeply appreciate it. Before I found this website I felt as though I was alone, but thanks to all the messages I have read I know there is hope.
