I do like the Celexa because I feel more grounded and very much at the norm. I went on Paxil CR for one month, after trying Celexa for one month. The Paxil was too strong. I'm back on the Celexa for two months and am sticking with it. It takes a little time because it is mild. | F | 40 | 2 months | 8/20/2003 | 4 | M | 42 | | 8/18/2003 | 4 | Depression | Sleepiness | M | 24 | | 8/8/2003 | 4 | depression | none so far | i feel better emotionally than i have for years and i have not had any side effects to date. | M | 56 | 21 days | 7/18/2003 | 4 | Depression/anxiety | Vivid dreams/nightmares, tired | Overall a good medicine for me.
