Zoloft?

Hi, I've been taking 20mg of Celexa for a month now, but I have worse anxiety. :( Was thinking maybe Zoloft? I've been on so many darned antidepressants. Wish one would work for me. I'm getting panic attacks.

Hi, I had the same situation with meds. Presently, I use Adrenal Health and Zenmind. I get proper rest, cut back on coffee and caffeine. I drink chamomile and lavender teas. I also use Serenity or Peace essential oils by doTERRA.

I’m on celexa and like it. Highest dose here! Have you talked to your doctor about something called genesight? It’s a simple swap of the cheek, insurance usually will cover it. What it does is it narrows down medications that will work best for you and your DNA, such as which meds would be more receptive to helping your issues.

Check out their website. It will also help stop the cycle of tryin 20+ medications to see what sticks!

Hi, that sounds pretty neat, the geneswap. I decided to try 40 mg of Celexa to give it a chance. I went to the psychiatrist today.

That’s great! Try it out, see how you feel. I love it? Granted, meds react differently to us all. If you feel crappy or feel suicidal, call your doc ASAP and don’t take it anymore. I hope this works! Trial and error, you know?

Check out genesight if it gets too tough and you find yourself trying way too many different medications. So many options these days, too!

My only side effect is the yawning. Crazy right!?
