ben, ask your doctor about Propananol. It stops the shakes,

Celexa will make you crave carbs..so watch your carbs...

TicTacToe, 

Happy to hear you're doing better. Did  you see a big improvement from week 5-6? I'm on week 5 still getting the difficult morning anxiety. My evenings are becoming a lot easier. My mind also isn't racing as fast anymore. Lastly,  I don't feel as depressed as I was. 

11

Propananol can cause insomnia in some as it surpresses melatonin. I've never used it but it is good for the physical side effects until they wear off.

 

12

There are a lot of Serotonin receptors in the gut, stomach problems do clear up. I'm in week 7 and have the same.

13

I totally agree with you...

14

Do you get morning anxiety still ? It really throws my morning off. 

15

ive just done 3 weeks on celexa.., no change so far... 

16

At three weeks I was pulling my hair with anxiety..four months I started feeling the benefits..

17

i thought that perhaps as im on mirtazapine , celexa would kick in quicker

18

On the contrary any other add ons will make your recovery way longer..

19

I'm thinking about getting some ativan from my psych think that would help this process?

That is a smart move..your recovery will be so easy..trust me..and you ain't going to get addicted because once the celexa kicks in..you just won't want to take the Ativan..
