> Thank you guys so much for the advice about combined eating. I will have to give that a try. I'm trying to use diet to control weight, not to control my mood (although if it helped that would be a bonus).
> Question about changing meds. So I've been off of celexa now for maybe two weeks. I've been feeling pretty crappy, ya know crying and getting really irritated at things. I have a doc appt. on Monday. Should I request a new med or should I wait longer (as someone posted earlier) and see if it's just withdrawl and maybe I'll "normalize" after a few more weeks?
> Thanks again!

I think only you and your doctor can make that decision. We don't know enough about your situation. But please tell the doctor what you've told us and see if he thinks it may have to do with your blood sugar. (Have you ever had a blood glucose check done? If so, maybe it wouldn't hurt to do it again). The two of you need to decide whether or not changing the way you eat may improve how you are feeling, and if you are up to the challenge. Fortunately some of us have been able over the years to get well from years of research and experimenting. But I would never suggest that you change your course of treatment without talking to your doctor. Use what you learn here as information to take back and discuss with your doctor. If he's a good physician he'll listen and help.Good luck!
