I have taken celexa for two years. I will say that it did help for a time. I am ready to go off the medication and have stopped cold turkey. It has been about a week now. The "brain-slosh" feeling is pretty bad and sometimes makes me feel sick to my stomach. I am hoping this will go away soon. I probably should have gone off gradually but I am this far now so I will continue.
The reasons I chose to stop taking the medicine are:
1. I am only 38 and would like to have some sex drive.
2. I have gained about 20 lbs. and find it difficult to lose or to
even motivate myself to lose it.
3. I am tired of being tired. I want to sleep a lot.
4. I don't always want to just feel even. The medication takes the
edge off the bad stuff and also the good stuff. I want to be able
to feel things as they are again.
The medication did serve a purpose for a while and it did work.
