In reply to CELEXA CHANGES -GOOD TO BAD AFTER 1 MONTH, posted by angel1 on June 5, 2002, at 5:21:07
Sometimes the SSRIs side effects go away after a few months, sometimes not. Also the side effects will get stronger as to dose is increased. I have used Paxil and Celexa and Effexor XR (currently) and they all have some similar side effects. Sleepiness is common, especially with Desyrel, Serxone, Luvox. Also Remeron and the TCAs Elavil, Anafranil, SInequan, Tofranil. Some SSRIs are more stimulating like Prozac. Check out www.sdh.sk.ca/rxfiles for some handy comparison tables. I'm sorry you are feeling so tired, I know how bad it can be, sleepy all the time and at work, and so tired all you can do is come home from work and crash. I hope you can find a medication that will work with less fatigue. (I believe that sometimes the fatigue is depression because the medication is not really working well too.)
