I was on Paxil first, then Celexa. After 6 weeks or so on Celexa, I started falling sound asleep during the day and felt like a zombie. Asked my doc if could stop it and she agreed. That was early spring. I tried Nortripti-? once and it made my heart race. I'm always a reluctant medication-taker, and I think my doc got tired of trying to persuade me. Then the summer came and I was feeling brighter.
Now my husband's lost his job and things are scary, and I think that's triggering this new batch of panic attacks and the start of a phase of depression (though I feel bright today after an awful day yesterday...).
Will keep an eye on the heart thing. Thanks for the info on those blood tests.
