Ive been on SSRIs since '99 or so. I think theyve been the cause of the fatigue Im getting lately. Ive tried stopping celexa but the fatigue persists and the docs Ive seen can give me no answers.
I noticed that muscle aches and fatigue followed the dose of the SSRI. Also the weight gain and carb craving. I was even able to get the 'low blood sugar shakes' to follow dose increases when I experimented with it.
Have tried a small dose of topamax which seemed to help the cravings and briefly helped the muscle aches and fatigue. May have been due to it helping depression? who knows this is all so complex.
Id suggest getting an endocrinologist to check you out if you experience fatigue also.

I think these drugs do something with metabolism and it hasnt gotten much research.
