In reply to celexa... is anyone NOT having side effects????, posted by egalitarian2000 on May 29, 2000, at 16:45:46
> I am beginning to feel like a human guniea pig, as this is the THIRD anti depressant i have been on. I tried paxil, zoloft and now celexa. I had to come off the other two because of sharp increases in anxiety and inability to sleep. It got so crazy that I was going for 3 or 4 days at a time without sleep.
James here....
All SSRI's tend to increase anxiety and cause sleeplessness at first, how long were you on these ? If you are not sleeping you should report this to your doc and ask for something to help you sleep, short term. It is common to have to try several meds b4 you find the one that works, I have tried many more than 3 !
Your you giving each med a full 6-8 weeks or are the side effects too bad to go that long ?
