I too have felt Lexapro's anxiety side effects (I've only been on it 3 or 4 days)....but when I took one of my mom's Celexa tabs a couple of weeks ago, I didn't get that feeling at all...it just made me feel sort of tired (mellow)...of course I only took ONE Celexa pill for just ONE day, just to see what sort of reaction I'd get....but, again, have any/many folks mentioned that Lexapro makes them feel differently than Celexa?

... Yes.... from my memory (not the best resource) i can remember several Celexa users who were not well for Lexapro ... At All.
this particular transition, which would seem to be the least challenge since lex is son of celexa, has been among the most difficult ... for some unknown reasons ... in particular, our kind poster, babs, found lex completely unacceptable and went back to Celexa, but there have been several who were fine with Celexa, but could not handle Lexapro ...
which is to say: Yes, very different ... for some folks ...
TAKE CARE !!!
