| 4 | anxiety | M | 34 | 1 years | 12/9/2002 | 4 | ANXIETY | SEX DRIVE REDUCED AND INITIALY THOUGHT I WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO ORGASM AGAIN. I HAVE NOTICED A LITTLE JAW CLENCHING ALSO. | DOCTOR PUT ME ON CELEXA AFTER I HAD CONSTANTLY TOLD HIM THAT I WAS STILL SUFFERING ANXIETY / FEELING OF UN CONTROLLED TREMBLING (THOUGH I WASN'T)WHEN I WAS ONLY TAKING BETA BLOCKERS. I AM TAKING CELEXA IN COMBINATION WITH BETA BLOCKERS (FOR HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE AND ANXIETY). TREMBLING STOPPED ALSMOST IMMEDIATELY THOUGH ANXIETY IS STILL HERE BUT GETTING BETTER SLOWLY. APART FROM THE SEX DRIVE ISSUE I HAVE BEEN PLEASED WITH CELEXA BUT STILL CRAVE THE DAY I WILL BE TOTALLY MEDICATION FREE. | M | 33 | 1 months | 11/22/2002 | 4 | severe pms | F | 35 | 9 months | 11/18/2002 | 4 | F | 34 | 3 months | 11/14/2002 | 4 | Depression | omg dysfunctional penis!! no orgams. A little jaw-clenching too. | M | 24 | 9 months | 10/26/2002 | 4 | depression | | 10/8/2002 | 4 | Mild Depression | Reduced libido. | Great drug except for the side effect. | F | 37 | 1 years | 10/1/2002 | 4 | Anxiety & depression | Severe Nausea, dizzy, and tremors. Dr. told me to take 1/2 pill (20mg) in morning and 1/2 at night. This helped. | Have only been taking Celexa for a week but already can tell that I feel more "mellow" now than before. Work is the primary cause of my stress and anxiety and I feel "almost" like I can handle it now. | F | 46 | 7 days | 9/18/2002 | 4 | depression / anxiety | tremor / hand shake a bit no sexual side effects at all - increased dosage and still had absolutely no change in ejaculation | M | 34 | | 9/11/2002 | 4 | generalized anxiety disorder | F | 21 | 6 weeks | 8/16/2002 | 4 | anxiety/depression | sweating, absoulutely no sex drive, teeth clenching, yawning, no energy, weight gain. | My mood was much better, controlled my temper a lot! Had a better outlook on things. Just got fed up with side effects. Trying Wellbutrin SR now. Hopefully will lose weight with it. | 41 | 2 years | 7/24/2002 | 4 | clinical depression/anxiety | dry mouth, some sexual disinterest, and inability to cry | Celexa is the 5th med I've taken and is the only one without diblitating side effects. | F | 20 | 2 years | 7/9/2002 | 4 | Depression | Decreased Libido,orgasm difficulties,dry mouth and altered sleep pattern | Whilst I have only been on Celexa for a short period of time I have not (So-Far) experienced side effects to the level that I have with all the others that I have tried! The sexual dysfunction is a small price to pay (could be my age) | M | 50 | 3 weeks | 6/11/2002 | 4 | depression | Insomnia | M | 59 | 2 months | 5/28/2002 | 4 | ADHD/Depression | None | Have seen a lift in the way I view my day from about the third day already. Feel better about myself. Able to think about my future. My mom is waiting to make sure that the lift isn't just psychological. I am on Adderall as well. | M | 13 | 16 days | 5/11/2002 | 4 | major depression/anxiety disorders | dry mouth (not bad and not consistent)sexual side-effects: orgasms very rare | not a complete solution to my problems, worked much better for anxiety symptoms than depression; sex side-effects can be frustrating, but overall MUCH better tolerated than Paxil or Serzone which I tried first. | F | 28 | 2 years | 4/26/2002 | 4 | | 4/26/2002 | 4 | Depression | Diahhrea for the first few days but not too troublesome. Really bad yawning for about 2 weeks. If it hadn't worn off I would have to have stopped taking them. Couldn't eat for the first few days and was quite trembly and tense but this may have been more due to depression that the tablets The only side effect after 4 weeks is delayed, weakened orgasm but I can live with that, at least for the moment. | Really good response on 20mg. It's the only anti-depressant i've taken so can't compare it to anything else. Still have bad days but not as many and not as crushingly bad as they used to be. most of the time I'm back to my old self and i can concentrate on the things most important to me and can respond more rationally to situations | M | 25 | 1 months | 4/16/2002 | 4 | depression | at the begining (only 1st week) yawning, feeling tired, lack of apetite | F | 20 | 30 days | 12/26/2001 | 4 | Depression/OCD | Yawning, at times a terrible hand tremor, constipation, dry mouth. | I started out with 10mg increasing 10 each week. Currently take 40mg and Trazodone for help in sleeping. I have not benefited from the ability to sleep with just the Celexa. The depression was brought on my low serotonin levels and I can honestly say there is much improvement. I would like to increase the dosage again by 10. The tension from a bad day is still impressive. I can see where I will probably take this for the rest of my life and I don't have a problem with it. | F | 43 | 4 months | 10/6/2001 |
