I've been on Celexa for about 15 months, which has worked a lot better with the mood stabilizer and the AP than it ever did alone---big surprise there, right? The only drawback is that I can't take any more than 10 mg....ever. My pdoc won't allow me to increase it even when I'm depressed because 20 mg flips me right over into mania, no matter what other meds are opposing it.

He doesn't even like prescribing it for me because of the risk, but after he tried taking me off it last summer I went into a horrible, angry tailspin of a withdrawal. We do not want to go there again, so we don't discuss that anymore.
