I have an issue with celexa- when i first take my dose i feel fine, almost get a lift in mood. But hours late I may on occasion feel more anxious/angry as if the dose "wore" off. I don't know why since you would think a med like this would alleviate those symptoms- i was actually on 60mg celexa once and felt too angry/charged- or so i think... I told 2 different doctors about this situation and they don't even really say anything, they just nod their head, like its normal or something.

I'm not on 60mg anymore, im on 40mg. But it still doesn't seem to do much (just calms me down a little)- but also makes me feel kind of 'foggy', do you take celexa? i'm glad you reply by the way.
