"i have been on celexa for nearly two weeks and it has been a huge help. i can finally get up, bathe, get dressed, and go out. i am able to take my children to school and actually function. this is my first time taking meds but i am open to them since i have educational background in mental health. i am a grad school student and was first put on prozac but after nearly two weeks i went from severe anxiety to falling into a deep, terrible depression that left me unable to function. my dr. immediately switched me to zoloft but after only 4 days i became severely nauseated, so once again i was switched to celexa, and finally i can say that now i have gotten some serious relief. only side effects are itching and dizziness. good luck to you."
