survey-personality changes

Posted by cs on February 12, 2001, at 13:50:37

Hi-I have been on Celexa since November. It is wonderful- no more anxiety or depression and no side effects! Anyways I have a question though: Has anyone noticed a change in their personaltiy when being on anti-depressants? I have noticed that beside not being anxious or depressed I do not have the social worries I had before about whether everyone likes me or not. I am not sure if this is a perosanilty change or just me when I am not depressed. Anyways it is a good change but just curuious to what others have experienced.
Thanks c

That would be you as you are without obsessive thinking about others supposed perceptions of you and without obsessing about yourself, I would imagine.

I too am a Celexa user. My only complaint to my DR. that prompted him to put me on AD's was that I had a very busy mind. Constant thoughts - exhausting. I have a quiet mind now, but I sometimes miss "feeling". I haven't cried at a movie in forever - I miss that.
I may actually go off AD's and see.
I know that feelings are a normal part of life. If they are too big to handle I'll go back on but just since finding this Dr. Bob site, I wonder if I am taking AD's too lightly!
We'll see
