Celexa - 5 mg Day 8 - anyone with Celexa Exp?

Posted by RSidney on December 26, 2009, at 18:04:00

Still having major anxiety, tiredness, nausea, more anxiety. Can't get motivated to do anything. I felt MUCH better during my washout period from EMSAM before starting Celexa than I do now.

Can anyone comment on how long these side effects may last until they even out?

I was suffering terrible anxiety when I started Celexa, and it continued or got worse (I can't remember) for a few weeks after. The good news is that it went away and I stayed on the drug for several years. I wish you the best!

Hello,

5mg is a very small dose of Celexa. You may need a higher dose. Also, you can experience some anxiety for a few days while your body adjusts to any SSRI. Good luck!
