I took Celexa 20 mg for about a year. It's the smallest dose that apparently most doctors start you out on, and it can sometimes take more than 6 weeks to kick in fully. I think that what generally happens is that they'll give you something stronger if it's not working for you after a few months. Best advice I can give you is DON'T stop taking the medication. Also, have you taken counseling?

If I understand, you're stressed, anxious, and worried about how to cope until it does get better, or if it will even get any better. Is that right?
