navydoc2 Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 (edited) I take this medication at night for depression and anxiety but all it does is leave me feeling groggy and lethargic the next day like a bad hangover. Does anyone else who takes this med feel this way, how do you deal with it? Thanks. doc Edited October 1, 2009 by navydoc2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smilen66 Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 Hi NavyDoc, I take celexa (20 mg) and I experience the same side effects. I ran out in July and decided not to take it anymore. Long story short, I started taking it again in Sept. because I felt sad most of the time (off of it), tearful, out of it and extremely anxious. I take mine at night, also. When I first started taking it , I took it in the morning...not good. I take 6 pills at night and 11 (some are vitamins) in the morning. Since, I don't work, I take a nap most days.

Thats the catch 22 I'm in too I feel so much worse when I don't take it than when I do and I feel like I'm moving in drying concrete and my focus is horrible when I take it, but at least I'm not as depressed, it does nothing for my anxiety.
