I took Lexapro for several years without many side effects. Yawing and sleep problems. Then I had an aortic anysrem and kept taking the Lexapro. Then for money savings I switched to Celexa. I started losing weight, great. Then I start talking like a drunken sailor. I couldn't find any symptoms of speech problems so I figure it was a stoke. MRI says no stoke. I am getting off Celexa and SSRI's all together. I think the panic attacks i was having was my body telling me something was wrong and the doctor and I didn't listen. I just about cost me my life. NO TO CELEXA.
