celexa is a good medication but when it comes to antidepressants u should follow the rule of {TRIAL AND ERROR} since there r different medications for depression our bodies responce is different so u should be on celexa for about 4 weeks to decide wether its good for u

Hi.  Celexa is a good medication, but we all respond differently to these types of meds.  What one may experience, may not be another's experience.  The only way to know is to try them, as it can often be trial and error, but once we find the right one...it's well worth it!!
There is a short break-in period while your body adjusts to the medication, but it's not bad.  Work closely with your doctor on this, should you ever have any questions, don't hesitate to call your doctor for reassurance. There are many of us on these medications and doing very well.  I wish you all the best!
