> > Thanks for the reply. I am just paranoid. I have periods every 21 to 23 days as I mentioned and the PMS makes me feel bloated and about 5 to 7 lbs. heavier. I do exercise and stopped caffeine a while ago. It's probably stress, like I said. New job, divorce, abusise relationship, but it has got to get better now. I am also worried about weight gain on Celexa and have read different things. Any comments on that? >

> When I took it I felt less hungry and energized. With almost all the antidepressants people may gain or lose weight depending on how it affects the individual. I really liked it for depression-it brought me out of it almost immediately but like I mentioned, it aggravated my anxiety disorder. It perked me up quite a bit except for that. You are going through an awful lot of stress right now and I think you need to take it easy (easier said than done, huh?). If I were you I wouldn't take on any more stressors and just try to take care of yourself. I used to gain quite a bit during PMS but not as much as I get older but I have put on weight. I'm just trying to get a little exercise and treat myself well. Are you out of the abusive relationship now? I've been in them, too, ugh. That's hard.
Hi ladies.I'm sorry about this. It is not terribly appropriate for me to say this here, but a few things that I encountered this week begs me to ask the questions:
1. Why do men act like such cowardly brutes?
2. Why do women stay with them when they first begin to act this way?As a man, I can understand how easy it is to be a cowardly brute.
As a man, I can't understand how readily a woman suffers one.
As a man, I am sorry that this happens.There is nothing weaker than a strong man taking advantage of a weak woman.
Sorry. No response is necessary.
Sincerely,
Scott
