Hi All, I just started taking Celexa last night for the first time on the reccomendation of a friend who took it in the past with wonderful results, no weight gain, in fact she lost weight. She told me to expect to feel a little "strange" the first few days and that it takes about 2 weeks before you start to feel better. I suffer from depression, general anxiety and anxiety attacks. I'll keep you all posted as to any side effects that I do experience.
