My GP Dr. prescribed me meds last month so I wouldn't have to deal with the stress of the mental unhealth center here. The meds are what I was on when I was in a nursing home for physical rehab in 2012 and then they had me on a blood pressure med for a stupid reason so I was tired all the time. Now I'm not on the blood pressure med and haven't been since I got out of there.

The previous paragraph and this one is a lead up to the question I want to ask. The meds I'm on now are Zyprexa and Celexa. The Zyprexa helps with sleep and I take it at night. The problem I am having is with the Celexa it's making me drowsy too. It's to the point where I fall asleep for a couple hours or more after taking it so now my sleeping schedule is messed up because I feel like sleeping most of the time. I'm a night owl anyway but I can't be sleeping this much.

Has anyone else who's been on Celexa had it make them this drowsy and out of it?

The night before last I tried taking the Celexa before bedtime, I skipped my Zyprexa and ended up sleeping for 12 hours. Still felt like a Zombie for hours after waking up too.
