Thanks for the response. I actually thought I was going crazy about two weeks after getting the shot. Then I did some research on the net, and found out that thousands of women have suffered really bad side effects (much worse than my daily barfing, fatigue and low mood) on the stuff. Supposed to get my next shot on October 20. Needless to say, I won't be going.

I think I am scared (in a good way), that I am actually starting to feel like myself again and that I am actually starting to feel something again (I am even enjoying feeling pissed off and irritable. Man, am I warped). I am still a bit anxious and nervous, but it has only been 2 weeks since I stopped the Effexor and started the Celexa (1st week at 10 mg then up to 20 mg). I don't think I am experiencing europhia or hypomania, but I just have the urge to do a "happy" dance. After almost a year of suffering the physical and emotional effects of iron deficiency (actually had to take a number of months off work where I had been working long hours because I was not responding to treatment, and my iron levels would not budge. Luckily, I had tons and tons of accumlated leave since I rarely get sick), then a bad reaction in August to my first Depo Provera shot, I think I may be seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. I don't know if you have ever felt this way before, but there were times today that I actually felt like crying I was so happy to be feeling somewhat happy.
