I have been on Celexa about 10 months. I was crying all day. I hardly got out of bed most days.

At first I was on 20mg and that stopped the crying but I still had no motivation or enthusiasm over anything.

I just went to 40mg (one in the morning one at night) and had the best 2 weeks in years. Happy, enjoying the day, actually getting up and joining my husband in a hike. Like I said... its been years.

My side affects have been minimal. Weight gain (20lbs), achy muscles and occasional headache but the benefits for me outweigh (no pun) any side affect.

Happy Healing to us!!!
