Hi Bob,
I'm cold-blooded by nature, but while I was on the Celexa it was just ridiculous. That and then intermittently breaking out in a sweat. I attributed the coldness to Celexa because I was already on the AC's before adding it. About 48 hours after I stopped the Celexa, it improved. They mention the sweating, but didn't mention the *cold* side effect in the patient's literature. But I'm sure we're not the only two to have experienced it..

I was freezing cold all the time, , exhausted, felt cruddy, and at one point my moods were up and down on a daily basis for five days straight before I gave it up. I guess we haven't ruled out a dash of an antidepressant, but we'd have to think carefully about which one."

I added the Lamicatal and Neurontin after I was stabilized on Celexa and Klonopin. I too get cold spells - my hands especially get quite cold. I attributed it to the anticonvulsants, but maybe the Celexa is causing the problem???
