anyone on celexa??

I am completely off xanax x 1month, things going ok overall (see open journal for details)

Anyway I have been having mild ups and downs. I am seeing a therapist for my panic attack issuse, we are doing CBT, which has really helped, but the last couple of weeks, I've been on edge, (see journal for details)
My doctor says celexa is the milder drug for Panic/Anxiety.

years ago I was on zoloft, (had really bad panic attacks) zoloft gave me my life back, but also gave me E.D. but honestly that is not a issue, I would rather take zoloft and have my life back. E.D. is only for duration of medication.

Just wondering any thoughts on CELEXA VS ZOLOFT.

Been taking 30 mg of celexa for just over 4 weeks for anxiety....had dry mouth and a little fogginess for the first couple of weeks but that has worn off.

I'm much better than I was without the celexa but still think it needs more time (or possible dosage adjustment)....been wondering if I should try lexapro but hate to change since I'm so far into the celexa.

No ED for me....but was warned it was a possibility.
