Hello

I was on Celexa for 3 years (80 mg/daily). It did nothing for my symptoms, initially it did cause some drowsiness so I took it at bedtime but soon that effect wore off and then it had the opposite effect and really compounded my severe insomnia so we ended up taking it in the mornings. But ... it never really did anything for my depression ... actually the depression gradually just kept getting worse. I'm on different meds now that seem to be helping a little more, but not much ( combination of Wellbutrin and Zoloft ).

Some people just swear by the Celexa and consider it to be some sort of wonder drug ... but, to each his own ... we're all different, different chemical make-up, different life experiences and stressors ... guess the Celexa just wasn't what I needed. Other than the effects I've mentioned ... I really didn't experience any other side-effects.

Take care, be safe & well: Kefrin
