I take 20 mg Celexa along with SAM-e with very good results. The Celexa made me tired for the first 3 months or so but not after that. After 3 months, I started taking it in the morning instead of night.

I'm also augmenting with 15 mg. Remeron to help with sleep, there is some minor residual tiredness but nothing that would make me consider stopping what has been a successful mode of therapy so far.

Before, I could barely be in any atmosphere where there were people because I would feel tears well up. Anyhow, I continued to stay on this for a few months but the bad side was my increased tiredness. My doctor switched me to Zoloft, which wasn't a good choice.. she kept upping my dosage to see if it would have a better effect, and I ended up feeling like I was going insane. So now I'm going back to Celexa to see if things will work out well again. I'd rather be tired and happy than cranky and weird.
