Stay on Celexa. In June of this year (2002) a new version of Celexa will hit the market. It is called Lexapro in the US (escitalopram). It has less side effects than Celexa in 2 areas:
1) daytime sleepiness
2) sexual side effects
Until then, try Ginkgo Biloba. I had daytime tiredness with Celexa (I take 40 mg) until using Ginkgo. I take 120 mg twice a day (240 mg total). Use a reputable brand. The only risk is if you have bleeding problems you may not be able to take it. Check with your doctor. Ginkgo is also recommended to counteract sexual side effects from SSRI's.
