 1  Anxiety Run! The absolute worst crap I've ever taken. It's as if the dr prescribing it is attempting to kill me. Side effects are brutal, withdrawal effects even more so. Why do you think the arschlachs at celebrex out aside 9 million in defense funds...it's because this drug almost kills a person. Side effects, vision issues, breathing issues, gastro bleeding, suicidal thoughts, appetite loss, shakiness, diarrhea, etc... withdrawal issues, massive chest pain, panic attack, loss of bodily control, suicidal thoughts. Long term: breathing issues, gastro bleeding, vision, anxiety. Who did the tards at celebex pay off to get this crap approved? I'd like to find out, perhaps pay a visit to these assholes, see what they have to say...woukdn't it be nice....in theory, of course. M 35 days

 4  depression, ocd, anxiety Though not present side effects, the first couple weeks of taking Celexa I experienced loss of apetite and tiredness. Before taking Celexa I was able to concentrate and stay focused on something for hours. Now, I'm finding it hard to concentrate, which I'm thinking could have to do with the loss of some of my Obsessive thinking. I take 40 mg of Celexa, and in general I'm much more happy and my obsesive thoughts have decreased but not stopped. However, when I'm put in a stressful situation (every 2-3 days) the medecine does not help at all, and I still have social anxiety. I would deffinetly recomend the medicine to anyone that has problms with depression. F 15 6 months

 3  depression, bulimia, panic disorder Starting it, i was dizzy and tired and zombie like for a week. Coming off of it, I am very dizzy, nauseous, get extremely depressed and cry every day, sometimes I cry upto 5 times a day over little things. I have lost all my friends due to my celexa-induced nihilism. EXTREME bruxism (teeth grinding) It worked pretty good for my anxiety, and definately depression. I havent felt depressed in 2 years, but my doctor made me come off it a week ago due to me grinding my teeth all day long. I am really dizzy, nauseous all day long, some days im super tired and some days im super awake at school. I get really depressed and pissed off now, and I cry alot. While on Celexa, i probably cried once a month... I think I gained a little weight on it, but it stopped my eating disorder habits which kind of makes me sad since i gained weight. I am very confused about my eating now since i never used to do it before, but on Celexa it feels normal to eat. Also while on Celexa I gained this attitude of not caring about anything, and now that I`m off of Celexa it hasnt changed. this nihilist attitude has stuck with me for life... F 16 2.5 years
