Hi,
Wow. I gained thirty pounds in three months on Celexa. As soon as I went off and on to Effexor (which is known for weight loss) I dropped almost 15 pounds in 6 weeks! It's so strange how different medications work differently with each body.
Sounds like Celexa is working great for you. Good luck!

> For what it's worth. I began taking Celexa this past summer. I dropped from 139 lbs to 124 lbs. Since then I have levelled off at a very acceptable 130 lbs. (i'm 5'5") The Celexa has done wonders for my emotions. I am sooo much better. Initially, I did find the side effects very trying, especially the diarrhea & teeth clenching. Since that time my only remaining side effects have been crazy crazy nightmares & unstable sleep. Which is to say i tend to flip flop between sleeping heavily or not sleeping at all. (these phases last about a week) But in the end...i am willing to put up with the inconvenience, because the results have been so good.
