You made a bit of a typo but I think everyone will understand "likely" meant "lightly".
"the best you can do is abstain or drink very likely"
A doc on this forum a few years ago said drinking and Celexa can cause a seizure, so I hope that scares you enough not to combine those 2. Call your pharmacist or the manufacturer to be sure.
It is always advisable to use cation when consuming alcohol while on medication.
Alcohol, I think, can add to the effect of the medication. It may depress your CNS (that could be to dangerous levels in some people, where they stop breathing, etc).
If celexa is working for you I wouldn't change. It would be best to have this discussion with your doctor though.
I was just wondering if the alcohol may be a way to medicate against some of the anxiety.

It is always recommended that you be very careful with alchohol and these medications. Everyone responds differently so you can not generalize about specific medications so the best you can do is abstain or drink very likely, and when you do,monitor the effect on you. You are much better off increasing the dose of the medication and stopping the alcohol if you are using alchohol as a stop gap medication for anxiety.
