Celexa; did i go too fast, too high???

Posted by qbsbrown on July 23, 2006, at 20:43:44

My PDOC wanted me to get up to 40mgs before trying 10-20, for acute anxiety disorders, and apparent ocd symptoms. I am med sensitive, and do react to them with derealization.

Got up to 40mgs, and hit a real sweet spot. Lightbulb in brain went off, i felt normal again for first time in years. My sex drive was back, and fully functional. This lasted 4-5 days
I was on 40mg for one month.

I hit an obsessional snag, and doc wanted me to go up to 60mgs ASAP. This was one month after 40mgs.
Was that too fast?

60 and 50 haven't been great, or even anybetter for the past month.

I feel so cracked up, just jolted. I live in my racing thoughts all day long. I feel even more depressed on higher doses.

I've come down to 50, 60 was incredible hunger etc. Doc wants me back up to 60 soon, but i emailed her that i want down to 40 again.

Keep in mind that im in the middle of a benzo WD, after being on them 2 years. My CNS is so sensitive, pain killers cause panic attacks.

Thanks for any advice.

Brian
