Hi dear Kitty ~ I'm so sorry this breakup is so hard for you. Some are really hard to let go.

I know you said you've been on Celexa since November -- perhaps you need an increase in dosage. Sometimes after we've been on a medication for awhile, we find that the current dosage just isn't enough. That has happened to me before. In fact, I may be going thru it right now -- I'm not sure, so I'm going to wait just a little while. But talk to your doctor about it. Perhaps he can increase it for you.

As for the breakup, please don't isolate. It's best to get OUT -- out of the house, and among people. Even if you just take walks, or window shop. Go to the Library, of volunteer at a Senior Center. But DO something. If we get out of ourselves and into others, it REALLY makes a huge difference.

And please don't say you 'can't do it' because you CAN. It's when you feel the WORST that you need it the MOST. Once you do get out, you'll be amazed at how quickly your mood BEGINS to change. Yes, it takes strength to get going, but you HAVE that strength -- you've just buried it. Pull it out, and use it, my friend. Please. I have been where you are, and I have had to do the exact same thing. I was basically ORDERED to do it. LOL

I pray you begin to feel better. I'm on your side -- I know how you feel. God bless and please take care! Big hugs, Lee
