I was on celexa aka citalopram very briefly a few years back now. It didn't seem to work for me but I probably didn't give it long enough to be honest. I think it needs about four to six weeks to be able to get into your system so it can work properly.

Hopefully someone else with a bit more experience than me with celexa/citalopram will be along later to answer your question in a bit more depth :-)

I was on it for a while and i started to notice it worked after the intial 4-6 weeks but eventually it stopped working and i started having horrible panic attacks again. I slowly took myself off .

I took my first one today. Felt so tired stomach was hurting, headache, nauseated I vomited about 3 times. It was a bad day and now I don't know if its wearing off but I'm ready for bed and can't sleep because the anxiety is back....bad.
