Interesting. I have been taking a very small dosage of an Celexa (2.5mg) and over the past year have been unable to increase in dosage. Each time I try to, the syndrome I decide below becomes overwhelming and I end up reducing my dosage.
Heres what I've been dealing with -- Something occurs (A thought, something someone says) that would normally not make me happy, and for some odd reason it makes me so happy I want to cry tears of joy. Also, there are times that for whatever reason I just feel overly happy and talkative and can't stop smiling. I'm not sure if I have any other symptoms, those are the ones the bug me the most.
I've complained to my pdoc about this many times because I do not think it is correct for me to be feeling this way. It's sorta strange to break out in a huge smile when whatever it is I am talking about with someone isn't something that should make me react in this way.
Today he finally said he feels this maybe hypomania induced by the Celexa and spoke briefly about the possibility I maybe Bipolar.
I'm making a small spreadsheet that details the way I feel each day for the next month.
Any thoughts anyone??
