My Experience with Citalopram (Celexa) for the last 2 years

[saragales]

I’ve been on 20mg Citalopram for several years now, and it’s been absolutely amazing for me. Like you I really struggled when I first started taking it, having to start on a quarter of a tablet a day, then up to a half once I could tolerate it more, then three quarters and finally a full tablet a day. It made me feel SO nauseous at the beginning. My anxiety has long gone now, as have my anxiety attacks. I’m very much back to my real confident, happy self, and I love it! It’s so so so worth going through the initial stages as Citalopram is so so affective.

For those whos affraid to take medication : guys its necessary believe me, i was like you i tried everything herb, helty food, gym, nothing works, and my anxiety and depression go up, once i began taking citalopram 10mg /1 week - 20 mg / 1 month- 30 mg untill now, i swear it works just give it time, and also you should go out out once you feel good you should live your life. Sorry my English is bad, but all i want is help you guys, believe me medication is the solution

Celexa/citalopram is amazing. As someone who struggles with insomnia, Prozac and others keep me up all night. Celexa allows me to have energy during the day and feel tired at night. My sleep is so good and restful for the first time in my life. No panic attacks and my mood is always great. I also gained weight, a little over 15lbs in the past month and a half I’ve been on it. I work out frequently though so it’s all good weight. 10/10 would recommend!

I have panic disorder. I was on it for 4.5 years. Got off it with a 6 week gradual reduction. Was fine for 3 months. Felt great. Then the depression started back up. Followed by debilitating anxiety. So I am going back on. I wish I wouldn’t have come off. I am grateful this medication exists in my lifetime. 9 days back on, so I’m still not fully up and running again. But I’m hopeful by week 4 I’ll be back to “normal”.

Maybe it’s the chaos the world is in now, between covid and Ukraine and all the worry about US unity. If I do get off again, I’ll try and do it when the world is in a better place.

I've been on it since 2015 20mg. It changed my life Great medicine

[Glory-to-God.]

I have been on citalopram for years. Tried many times to reduce the dosage from 20 to 10 mg. It usually works for a few months, but once there's a trigger for anxiety, I immediately relapse and start feeling super anxious, fearful and hopeless again. Last episode was about 2 to 3 weeks ago, I went back to 20mg immediately and is still not back to normal yet. 😢

It helped and helps me intensively. Thanks to a good doctor I finally have the good medicine. Been on 20 mg for five years and feeling good. Yes gain weight and sometimes sweating but mostly not. Best AD I have taken in my life. The first month I felt like a zombie, after that it really kicked in with good results.

I had all those symptoms and Prozac help me a lot. I took them for 3 years and now I’m better.

I am on day 6 of 20mg. I reached a point a few weeks ago that I was broken, stressed all day every day for years and serious anxiety and depression. Really hoping it will give me some desperately needed relief.

[jarek]

today iam starting Citalopram as iam switching from Cymbalta that stopped working for me after 3 years, worring about both withdrawal and adjusting to new med

[aileenhampson]

When do you take it as I've only just been put on it and struggling to find the right time

[tylervance]

I am bout to start 20 mg and I have anxiety disorder and panic attack disorder and I’m so scared to take my medication 💊

[craftygirl]

Antidepressants only help about 40% I was told years ago, the other part is you therapy, breath work, excercise, hobbies. Weight gain is a side effect with some medications, I have to be careful because I have diabetes so a lot of the meds cause weight gain not good for diabetes.
