If you're only 22 it's unlikely to be the most common cause of this in men, which is an enlarged prostate. I have this all the time thanks to a wonderful (joke) surgeon and it's no fun, but I'm 64.
20 mg of Celexa per day about 2 months ago. My wife and I are trying have a 2nd child. Can these 2 medications hurt our chances of getting pregnant or, if my wife would get pregnant, could it be dangerous for the baby if these drugs were in my system at the time of conception?
I started on Effexor 5 wks ago and was having trouble urinating and have ejaculation pain. Stopped the Efxxor after 3wks and went to Celexa. Have been on for 2wks and still have the problem. Has anyone had to strain to actually get the urine started were now i have straining pain in my groin. Plus delayed ejaculation?
Hi, I have been prescribed celexa for my anxiety problems which were chest pains, dizzyness, loss of concentration etc. I have been on 20 mg now for about a month and a half and I was wondering how long it takes for a case like mine to recover and finally come off celexa. Also one weird thing ive noticed is that my eye is twitching a lot which is the only side effect I have from this drug. Will it go away? Anyone else taking celexa for anxiety?
My husband and i have been together for almost 3 years. We both take medication for depression. I know that a side effect for many antidepressants is decrease in sex drive. My husband takes Zoloft, and I take Celexa. My husbands sex drive is gone. He is in the mood maybe once or twice a month. I know that he can't help it, but I feel neglected. I tell him that I need some contact at least once a week, but this is a stab straight to his manhood.
You say Been prescribed Celexa but Doc is considering that I might have bipolar 2, is the same doc who has prescribed celexa the one to have concluded BP2 or for instance you were prescribed celexa by a GP then your pdoc told you to stop it as you may have BP2.
Incidentally all pharm companies marketing antidepressants say they don't drive people manic yet they do.
is celexa just for depression?? or does it also help with anxiety's?? is this one on the bottom of the list?? like zoloft,paxil,lexapro,prozac..this is in the same category as these others....please explain this??
My doctor thinks so and prescribed some Ativan and Celexa. I think I fell the affects of the Celexa because I feel like Im in a good mood most of the time. Im still having chest pains and my heart rate will increase for no apparent reason. Sometimes both hands will turn purple colors now. So Celexa has helped my mood but not my symptoms. Whats wrong with me?
Did you just enter menopause? Because if you did, it could be hormones. But given you've been on a med for years, you must have had an anxiety problem for years. You don't say how long you've been taking the ativan or how often. If you only take it when you absolutely have to, not on a daily basis, you're not going to get addicted to it and it won't be as hard to stop taking.
doctor prescribed this for me. i want to take it but am somewhat reluctant as i have heard it can cause hair loss. i love my hair and dont want to be bald!
if it DOES cause hair loss in me, are the effects reversible?
I have been on Celexa for a little over a month now, before that i was taking lexapro for my depression and anxiety disorder, and although both my anxiety level and my depression have gotten better i have been having vivid nightmares. Which makes my anxiety skyrocket right before bed, i have at least one nightmare per night i often have one wake up from it go back to sleep have anther and so on. I was just wondering if anyone knows if nightmares are side effects of this medication.
I take 10 mg of Celexa and Vistaril for sleep. I think if I upped my dose of Celexa to 20 mg then it would probably work for the anxiety, but I'm trying to lose much needed weight. (I've lost 20 and have about 15 to go). I would obviously rather be happy and fat but I've been trying to lose this weight for about 7 years so I don't want to up my dose just yet.
I've been using rescue remedy spray and calms and they help a little.
I have been taking Celexa and adderall together for about a year now and things have been working great.
My only problem has been the sexual side-effects which have made my sex drive almost nothing. Because I entered into a serious relationship within these past couple months my doctor and I started discussing potential drugs that would increase my libido. She suggested Buspar. However, I have only been taking Buspar for two days and feel like it is having a counteractive affect on my adderall.
My therapist believes I have a little GAD along with some male post partum....took 20 mg of celexa for 2 weeks then got upped to 30 mg which I've been taking for 3 weeks. I am much better than when I first started and have gone through the early side effects (dry mouth, fatigue, fogginess, etc).
With that said, I have had some very good days followed by days filled with general anxiety.
