Hi, I have been taking 10mg of Lexapro. My psychiatrist is changing my prescription to Celexa because of my anxiety, and because I tend to ruminate on the past. Anyone taking Celexa? What do you think of it?

Celexa?
Hi User1964. I actually responded better to the Celexa lasting 6 months before my doctor changed me to the Lexapro. They have similar qualities so you probably won't experience severe side effects. The Lexapro made me kind of jittery but the Celexa never really did. It just stopped working for me over time. Everyone responds differently so if your using medication to treat symptoms its worth a try. Just will need it to get into your system for a few weeks before you'll know for sure.
I really liked Celexa but it did stop working over time I experienced
I am on Lexapro now and I found it helps me - I haven’t noticed any side affects from it
Thank you chris1976
Hi.. I am taking celexa along with my anxiety medication. My doctor has bumped mine up to 60mg per day because my anxiety medication is strong. I helps me alot. Hope you feel better soon.
I'm on it & I don't have any side effects..plus i find it helps me a lot!!! Best of luck to you! Love & Hugs!!! XXX
Hi,
I was on celexa for 6+ years. I was on a low 10mg dosage and it did wonders to take the edge off.
I stopped recently and the withdrawal is brutal. But it was the best for me of all medicines that ive tried.
There is a lab that will test your gene type to determine will medication will metabolize better. I dont recall the name but you alcan Google it. They take most insurance including medicaid.
Best of luck to you! 😊😊
Hi I did so well on celxia but it took exactly like said 6 weeks to work and then it was like my anxiety just totally went away..love it, I got off 6 mo later and with no trouble and have been fine ever since..
Hi!
