Celexa- yes.
I have taken it for years. No weight gain no bad effects. When I got super depressed they upped the dose without a problem.
My only recommendation is to start a lesser dose and slowly work up.My first foray with an AD was frightful as they started me full dose!

Yeah!!!! I'm so glad your dr. listened to you. That is awesome!

I am on Celexa (generic) 10 mg. (lowest dose). It seems to work well for me. I was on Paxil previously and ended up with a flat affect from it. Once I started the Celexa, I got my personality back. I did not notice any significant side effects. I started at 20 mg which made me a little too high strung so the dr. lowered my dosage. I have been on the 10 mg dose for a few years now.

Again, I am so, so happy for you that you found someone who would listen to you. I hope this works for you and wish you luck! Let us know how you are doing.
