Hi friends! I haven't posted in a while. I took a turn for the worse, depression came back full force, moved, moved back, spent 4 days in the hospital resting my poor body from all the stress and sadness and anxiety. I was off the Suboxone, the doc took me off the Librium, put me on Ativan, and added Celexa. One day he gave me Provigil---you don't give that med (a stimulant) to a person with severe anxiety. So, I'm home now, started school this week (one class) and feel, well, weird. Starting back to school while doing adjustments with meds is quite the feat.

May I ask who has had success from Celexa?

The doc started me out with Celexa and Klonopin combo, but my heart has been in such bad shape, the Ativan seemed to help better for me, as well as Inderal. I remember being on Celexa years ago, and haven't been on an antidepressant since Nov. 2005. I am praying that all it can do is help "stabilize" me. I am planning on starting Yoga next week, and doing a stress test next week at my docs. Isn't that where you walk on a treadmill? I was in the ER last week getting my troponin checked, cardiac enzymes checked, checked for embolisms and clots--all o.k.
Does the Celexa work right away? Sometimes i still feel as though someone is sitting on my chest.
Anyway, hope everyone is doing well, any Celexa experiences helpful.
(((hugs)))
