I took a very low dose of celexa, it seemed to make my symptoms worse. I took it for two days and then stopped. It gave me an upset stomach and made me dizzier than I was. It seemed like my anxiety even got a little worse.

How long were you on it?  I know for me, SSRIs like Celexa can take some time to feel the benefits of the medication.  I also realize that I was initially nervous when I started taking meds, so I know that any and every side effect I initially noticed was probably amplified because I was already nervous about taking them.  Whenever I start, stop, or adjust dosage I do notice an 'adjustment' period, however, they tend to subside over time.  Having said that, we definitely all react differently to them and sometimes what works well for one may not be the right choice for the other and taking medication is a personal choice.  Please keep us posted!
