> I have been on celexa for 3 months now. While overall I feel TONS better and like I can function again without the horrible depression and severe anxiety, I still find myself worrying all the time and "what-ifing" when I get really tired. Does this ever go away?

> Also, I am very tired all the time. I can barely stay awake past like 9pm in the evenings and usually need 1/2 hour nap or so in the afternoons. The only problem with napping is that I tend to jerk myself awak (myoclonic jerks?) and thing "jerk" or twitch lightly while trying to fall asleep. At night it's okay though.

**************************************************Worry,
I've only been using Celexa for about 3 weeks. I
have found that there is little anti-anxiety effects.I have been severly fatigued for months, maybe years,
but I attribute that to depression, not the meds.I too have experienced muscle spasms since beginning
the Celexa. During the day they are limited to my
fingers and neck. At night when I go to bed they
intensify and affect arms, legs, and larger muscles.I'm glad to hear you are feeling better, that is
encouraging. I hope the good things continue for
you.
