Maybe you should start with 10 mg by breaking the pill in half. THat's what I did for the first week or 2. Then move up to 20 mg. Ask your doctor about that.
> About and hour after taking my first 20mg dose (early in the morning, with food)of Celexa, I began to feel at first only slightly disoriented, which lasted about an hour or so, followed by extreme dizzy spells and a few near-fainting episodes. The most severe feelings passed sfter a few (4 or so) hours, but i was left feeling like I'd had a mild to moderate psychedelic experience for a few days afterword...not at all a comfortable feeling! Just wondering if anyone else has had anything even remotely similar happen to them...
