Alara:
I don't know whether it has to do with being hypersensitive to alcohol or the simple chemistry of anti-depressant v. depressant.
I'm sure if you cut down from so much to so little alcohol, there's bound to be a positive effect. And maybe Celexa is such an upper that the beer balances it.
I drink a beer almost every night, too. It helps me relax in the evening. But I can't say my anti-depressant is working.
(My doc always tells me one beer with my Serzone is okay, though.)
As an aside, aren't you the one on Atkins? You're not even allowed alcohol on Atkins because of the carbs! That's one of the reasons I didn't start it!
