I found Celexa to have less side effects than many other ADs. I used it only 4 weeks and should have stayed on 20 mg longer. I went to 30 mg which was agitating. However, Serzone was very agitating to me after a couple of weeks. I had crying jags and the worse insomnia ever. I think I would try the Celexa, but give it time and proceed slowly. [Just my opinion I would try Celexa; it works for more people than Serzone].

I felt more clear and less foggy on clexa. Start low....break pills in half. Serzone made me feel fogged up. Do search on this site on serzone...I think John L. has the best advice start low and slowly go up because the right dosage window is small. As far as sex goes serzone caused me anorgasmia which it is not supposed to but did. Celexa caused some desensitizing but I could still perform and even though climax took longer the ride seemed more enjoyable than other ssri's.
