torrey/lisa- i've had more pronounced neck pain also, although i have just started with celexa. (i don't recall having it on zoloft, but it may have been possible) does it go away? it is so sore, it is giving me headaches...
> Lisa, I've noticed the neck pain, too, with both Zoloft and Celexa. I do have a tendency to get tense and sore neck muscles, but it has definitely been more pronounced while I've been on these medications.
>
> I also am being treated for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. I would say the Celexa has made *some* difference, and even a little helps alot. The SSRI's seem to reduce my anxiety level and how much things upset me, so that the compulsions lose some of their edge - there's more "room" in my life for other things.

> The most disturbing side effect for me has been the sexual dysfunction. Prozac was actually the most effective for my OCD. I have since tried all the other SSRI's, hoping to find one that doesn't interfere with sex. I have had less trouble with Celexa than the others, and it has helped with the depression, too.

> >I have also noticed the celexa does very little for my obcessive-compulsiveness & anger. Any input would be appreciated.
