Today is the 2nd day my husband has been taking 10 mg of celexa. Never had any other AD before.
He said that last night was awful trying to sleep. From other message boards that I have been reading, I notice that some people feel sleepy all the time and some have problems sleeping. One person wrote that Benedryl helps them sleep and it's non addicting. Also that it's safe to take with this drug.
Does anyone else have any ideas on how to get a restful night's sleep.
Also, his stomach is really bothering him. Very nauseas during meals. How long does this last?
And why would a drug affect people the way it does? I thought that this was just helping the chemical that the brain is deficient in to obtain more of that chemical. Why do you have stomach aches and restless nights?
I am trying to understand this drug and trying to help support my husband while he is taking this drug. I may have a lot of questions and hope that none of you get bothered by my inquisitiveness.
I am glad that I found this site because from the knowledge I get reading these messages, I pass them on to my spouse, who wouldn't in a million years come and share problems with complete strangers. I have to for him---because I love him and want to help.
