I started taking Celexa about a month ago for sort of a low grade depression, lack of motivation thing. I was taking it every other day. After a month, I started taking it every day, with a dose of Adderall (10mg 2x a day). When my period started, I went into a sort of hypomanic stage, as my psychiatrist "diagnosed" over the phone. I liked the effect of the Adderall, which I guess is a concern. I was wondering if other women had an accentuation of drug effects while menstruating? I was initially diagnosed with OCD with underlying depression. So far, the side effects (delay of orgasm and sleepiness) are about as depressing as anything I reported initially. I certainly don't feel cured and am interested to hear if others took awhile to feel normal, whatever that is!
