Help Antidepressant for Musician

Posted by linkadge on July 1, 2002, at 17:31:42

I was diagnosed with depression a year ago
and have since been sustained with varying ammounts of celexa. I am currently on 10 mg.
I am in a delema and want help from anyone who can help. I play the piano and am going to try my grade 10 in 2 months. Without celexa my anxiety would be to great for me to practice. On the celexa I can practice I just seem to loose musical motivation. It is very hard to explain I think It may have something to do with dopamine.
I am happy, I enjoy Seinfeld more than ever, I just don't enjoy the piano like I used to. The notes just don't envoke the same emotion. I find my mind just drifts right in the middle of practicing. I can concentrate on math and even reading but just not music. I was wondering if Remeron would be a better alternative. Music lovers out there, which AD's affect your appreciation of music the most. The music doesn't go through my mind like it did. Without Celexa I stay up all night with Mozart going through my mind. Don't get me wrong - It is not a stupifying effect of the Celexa - lingusitically I am faster than ever - jokes and humour come much more easily to me just not music. I know I've been bableing but help me out here anybody.
