If I were your doc (btw- I'm not a doc)I would have increased the dose of Celexa before adding another medication.
> Hi Everyone- I haven't been on this board in awhile but I'm back. i was on 70- mg of Celexa (need high dose for obsessions) and 3 mg of klonopin and everything was going fine until the middle of May (anniversary of my mother's death, Mother's Day and extreme stress at school. Then I fell apart- really anxious, crying all the time. My pdoc tried 1200 mg Neurontin to see if that would help and it turned me into a zombie (sleeping 15 hours a day) so I cut back to 900 mg and feel just as depressed and anxious as i did before.

> My pdoc thinks the celexa has pooped out on me and he's probably right and wants me to start cutting down so I can switch to something else but I'm TERRFIED because my body is so sensitive. I go through extreme withdrawal and many drugs in the past (prozac, geodon, etc) have made me very ill. I need some reassurance here. thanks for listening, Babs
