Hi All,

Well, here's what happened to me. I started out on 20 mg of Celexa, had horrible headaches, anorgasmia, etc., and then started skipping a day here and there. i talked to my pdoc about this, and insisted that I was super-sensitive to most meds. I cut myself down to 5 mg a day, and if the headaches reappeared, I'd skip a day. It took me a month or so to take 5 mg for the whole week. I incresed it up from there, but very slowly. After almost a year, I'm up to only 15 mg a day, which I do quite well on. I only had problems with anorgasmia for about 4-5 weeks. So far, so good! I'm not condoning that everyone take such a small amount, but I think it's important to start on a small amount, and work up from there.

I have no need to even think about getting off of this stuff. For those that had problems getting off, I hope everything is better for you now! The trials will pay off! Hang in there!

Good luck & good health to all!

Laurie
