i have been on celexa or citalopram for 4 months god it seems longer then that lol. i havent gained but have lost weight im holding at 210lbs i take 20mg a day i have taken 40 mgs but it caused mood swings so i went back to 20 mgs and all is good im 42. as far as sex i have found i hold an erection for about an hour befor i can orgasam i have found that at 40mgs my erection will start to fall but come back. this is weard because most males state theye cant hold one. my mind set is a feeling of nothing matters im a happy person yet nothing bothers me. i tried to go off the med but after 3 days without it i was a very angry person i tapered off just like i started up so it wasent due to a sudden withdrawl. i just wasent ready i guess. and for those people who are giving this drug to childeren i advise you dont. there are just to many issues with this drug that havent been worked out and i really belive most doctors dont even read these posts from users. and therefor theye have no idea of the things we go through. theye have the mind set of if its not posted in the jeronal of med it dont count for crap. as far as no sleep for a long time ya it happens i dident sleep for 3 days when i first started on this drug i had a craving for sweets and im not really a big fan of sweets and is most likely why i am holding at the same weight because i dont give in i eat once a day and i eat fish and veggies or beef and veggies and alot of garlic i dont eat pork i love pork but its got to much fat for me i cook most of my food in olive oil and no eggs and 1%milk if i use milk im not a milk drinker i just dont care for it. i havent been sick in over 10 years and cant remember my last cold i dont take flu shots. and i wont use penacillin. i hope iv helped someone i know iv added alot more info but it seems alot of people are gaining weight that puts them back into a state of depression so maybe by using my diet theye might be able to hold at a desired weight. ps when i say i eat lots of garlic im saying 4 cloves a day added to my cooking food olive oil i only use extra virgin i dont use margarin or lard or shortning i remove all fat from meat and skin from chicken all veggies are fresh fish is salmon, mackarial,tuna,sardines i also drink 1 glass of red wine a day should be 8oz but its more like 16 lol good luck everybody
