That's great chicchi,if you have found something that helps.
I did take Celexa once which is a similar SSRi
but had to quit early because it was giving me bad Heart palpitations and worsened Insomnia.
the Doc said give it time but couldn't handle it,then read that it gives an Energizing effect
and that's all i need before bed.
It must have been a Seretonin imbalance in your case? It can work for some.I'm still very skeptical about this whole thing about Seretonin and Depression.I've heard that some say there is a link and other say there is no real proof of it medically and has put me off Anti-Depressants somewhat.
