I was on Zoloft and decided it wasn't for me and my doctor suggested Celexa. Does it help with anxiety?

My doctor told me it should take 4-6 weeks to feel better on the highest dose. I'm on week 2. Doing a little better, but not as much as I had wished. Seems like I have a awhile to go. Do you feel less anxious overall? DO you have panic attacks?

It's fair to say I do feel much better than I did but still physical symptoms that are very uncomfortable. Fortunately no panic attacks. Are you much better?x

Hey, I'm a year and a half in and it's REALLY made a difference. I went from being suicidal and so anxious I couldn't breathe properly most of the time, to feeling really on top of things. I'm on 20mg and it's helping me deal with tough stuff in therapy, which is the long term solution to my problems.

I'm still thirsty all the time! That's the only side effect I experience. But that's fine, because it means I drink lots of water, which is good for me :)

Good luck folks!

I feel slightly better, but still have morning anxiety until I take my clonazepam. I think it might be a psychological thing.
