Hi Jenny. We sound like we have alot in common. During my first appointment with my psychiatrist, I asked him *How will I know if the drug is working?* I had been depressed for so long that I didn't know how it felt to be normal. His answer to me was *you won't feel depressed anymore. I know that sounds vague, but you'll KNOW." I have to admit that I was skeptical, but hopeful because I knew this was my last resort. One day, about a 1.5 weeks into taking the Celexa, I noticed my mood at work had elevated. I was actually LAUGHING. What a concept. And little things that used to aggravate me, I mean LITTLE things, like dropping a pencil on the floor or waiting too long at a red light, didn't frustrate and aggravate me. That were my first small indications that things were getting better. Now, several people have asked me what's new in my life, that I seem happier, they can hear it in my voice and see it in my facial expressions. I just smile and say *spring's here!*. This is too personal a matter to tell just anyone! I am so glad to hear you're doing better, my sweaty sleepy friend!
