Hildi,
It sounds like your doctor thinks you might be bipolar because of your reaction to the Celexa. However, there are people that are exceptionally med sensitive that *aren't* bipolar (if you are sensitive to a variety of medications not just antidepressants). You may need to take only very small doses to get the relief that you need. You might ask your pdoc on your next visit about the bipolar issue and get him/her to spell it all out instead of giving you other meds to take based on a suspicion. You need to have symptoms of hypomania or mania (*without* meds), BTW. Perhaps you need to talk with them about whether you have those *symptoms* or not.
good luck,
Mitch
