A very small dose (10 mg) of Celexa seems to do it for me, although it didn't prevent the breakthrough depression I went through in December. My pdoc won't let me take more because it does switch me into hypomania at a 20 mg dose, and he'd rather I not take an AD at all. But I tried withdrawing last summer and that did NOT go well, so back on it I went.

I started out with Prozac, then was on Paxil for years. I switched to Wellbutrin when it stopped working. BIG mistake---that stuff made me totally manic, and it wasn't a fun type of mania either.

Bottom line, a BPer and his/her psychiatrist have to be very careful when considering an antidepressant. Currently, I take Lamictal 250 mg along with the Celexa and 1 mg of Ativan at night, and this is keeping me in pretty good balance right now. Good luck to you!
