Zoloft vx Celexa for Anxiety

Posted by Indy on July 25, 2002, at 11:23:32

I have been on Zoloft for 3 months now with several adjustments to the dosage (between 75mg and 125mg). I have been very sensitive to the side effects - mostly more anxiety! I was feeling better for about 3 weeks when I added 50 mgs of Klonopin to the mix at night. I'm now back to feeling very anxious again and irritable with depression setting in. I am thinking of changing to Celexa because I've heard it is "less active" and better for anxiety/panic attacks. I had very good luck with Paxil before, but it pooped out after I had my son 2 years ago. Anyone have any advice on changing to Celexa? Are the side effects less harsh than with Zoloft?

Hi Indy. Welcome to Psychobabble.

This site has several boards, each dedicated to discussions of a different nature. This is the board for discussions of therapy and psychology. There is a separate medication board, Psycho-Babble (just one Psycho) that is dedicated to discussion of medication. I'm sure you'll get more replies to your post on that board. So I took the liberty of redirecting your post to that board. You can follow the links at the top of this page to get to the medication board. And to get to your post on the medication board, just follow the link below:
