sand-
i am using the 5-htp. jaw clenching is a side effect
of a few of the ssri's that i've used, including
celexa. i am doing it a little with the 5-htp too.
a couple of things that i have noticed on celexa,
up the dosage very slowly, i stayed at the initial
dose (10mg) for about 2-3 weeks before increasing
the dose. from what i've experienced and from
reading other threads on this page, it seems to
lessen some of the side effects that occur with
many of the meds. also, with celexa, some of the
side effects dissipate with time. give the meds.
some time (3 months or more) for your body to
learn how to work with them. read some of the
posts from february/march about celexa about
this. be patient. i know this is the hardest
thing when you want to feel better but you
have to deal with all this extra stuff (the
side effects). 3 weeks is TOO soon to tell
whether it is effective or not.
i hope i was helpful. take care. dina
