> Celexa: This was the absolute magic pill for a whole year. I had happiness and desire to socialize radiating off me 24/7. I'd wake up with a smile on my face despite any problems I was going through. I suddenly had a charisma and an amazing empathy for others that had been repressed for years. Every repression I had in my personality broke loose and suddenly I could (and desired to) express my feelings freely and confidently. I made people laugh out loud and I felt a need to socialize at all times; it was such an enjoyment to talk to and be around people. I would talk and talk and talk, while before I'd only said the basic stuff and regretted it later or ruminated over my behavior all the time.
This was my EXACT experience with Nardil. I still cry just thinking about it. I've wasted A LOT OF TIME (3 years) trying to get that back! Augmentation, combinations, titrating up & down. Sometimes I thought I HAD IT BACK. But nothing came close really. If I carried on the way I was I'd probably be abusing drugs/alcohol again by now. Sad.
Sorry to side-track.
