> Hello again...
> Well, I have been on Celexa for 8 days now. I've been feeling progressively better...But, there have been a few annoying side effects. My appetite is next to nothing. I have trouble sleeping the whole night through and I have some neck discomfort. I have been taking 2 Benadryls before I go to sleep lately and they have prolonged my sleep. Not by much, but any little bit helps.

> My biggest concern is my appetite. I'm very active and do burn calories by the tons. I'm 6ft tall and usually weigh around 205lbs, I feel comfortable with that weight, but now I cannot seem to eat as usual. This troubles me. When forcing myself to eat, I get nauseous. I do hope these side-effects are not long term. In regards to my libido, well no change there, thank GOD. I will keep posting as I progress. Hopefully, things will improve.I didn't feel like eating much at first, either, but that went away pretty quickly. The sleep took several weeks to improve - I took Ambien at first.
