"i got prescribed this medication for mild anxiety &amp; minor depression. i usually get overwhelmed by things that should feel not so worrisome, &amp; replay things that irritate or upset me over &amp; over in my head. i&#039;ve been on a light dose of celexa for about a week now. i take it at night &amp; don&#039;t have trouble sleeping. i will say right when it hits 645 - 7am i wake up &amp; am immediately wide awake though. i have definitely noticed a positive change. not a huge one, but just enough to make me feel more &quot;normal&quot;. i can be a bit of a drag sometimes, &amp; just not my peppy self that i know is hiding in me. this has made me feel much more of a positive peppy &quot;good parts of myself&quot; come out more &amp; i can manage my stress better &amp; lighter than i was before."
