Hey,
I've been on celexa for quite a while; it was origanaly prescribed for OCD. The doctor told me that it would treat depression as well. After the preliminary period of concentration accumulation, I noticed that I was no longer having panic attacks-which was great. Unfortunately, I was still depressed, and that's how I still feel.
After I graduated from highschool (last year), I went to university and got straight As, all the while experiancing, I suppose, a mild depression. Now, however, at the end of my second semester (and I've been like for at least 3 months now), I feel lethargic. Insomnia has always been a problem, and, even on days when I do sleep, I'm still lethergic.
Now, back in the first semester, I had the great experiance of an existencial/idenity crisis, which is still persisting. The crisis had been in the making for quite a while. How was I supposed to reconcile the behavior that I had durring highschool (and to an extent now), with my concept of my self? Durring highschool, I had spent literly hundreads of hours introspecting, and, when the crisis 'hit', I realized that it was all bogus. So I realized that I had absolutly nothing in the way of self idenity. That realization was horrifying.
Anyways, I'm considering increasing my dosage of celexa from 40mg to 60mg, and I was wondering if this said increase would have any affect upon my current mood.
