Ok, here's the deal. I just went to my dr a couple of days ago because I have been on Celexa for a year now. I have gained 20 POUNDS within the last 7 months alone!!!! She said she was going to switch me to Lexapro so I would hopefully stop gaining weight and have less of an appetite. I haven't started it yet, but from what I've read from all of you is that I can expect withdraw symptoms and dehydration. Also, I read on Lexapro's website that it is and MAOI. Is this true? If so, I don't want to take it. I'd rather just try and ween myself off of the celexa and deal with my anxiety and panic. Or, do you guys think it would be best to do that anyway and then go to the Lexapro?? All of your advice would be appreciated! Thank you in advance! ~Tracie
