"i have been on celexa for 2 months. i was very reluctant and had tried several in the past (couldn&#039;t get past the side effects). i didn&#039;t feel great the first couple weeks, but it wasn&#039;t awful. after 3 weeks, i felt better, more relaxed, and happier. i didn&#039;t feel much different, just started enjoying things more (as they should be). i smile more and laugh more - i get excited about things (i haven&#039;t felt excitement in a long time). i&#039;m so happy i stuck with this one and it has truly worked for me. also, i&#039;ve had trouble accepting an anti-depressant as a treatment option because i have no reason to be depressed - great life, kids, job, husband. but, i was. i guess it&#039;s my brain chemistry, but it is what it is. this works!"
