You know if the only issue I had on Celexa was weight gain and a difficulty losing weight I would have stayed on it. I would have accepted that side effect because not being depressed is so worth it for me but I had many other side effects on it that were worse so I had to go off of it because it was just not tolerable at that point.

I think tracking your food and changing your diet will help if you haven't already, otherwise if you really can't tolerate this side effect I do think talking with the doctor is a good idea. I just think any drug you take will have a side effect... It's just a matter of what you can tolerate. Maybe Celexa is one of the better ones for you and you don't know it.... Perhaps the others will have worse side effects? Just food for thought... No pun intended.
