Re: cop and cookies

[Guest guest]

,

Glad you got out to relatives house even if you didn't feel like going.

Towards the end of taking Celexa, I always took it right before I went to

bed because I wanted to be asleep when it took effect. I was told though

that after having been on it for a while, I wouldn't feel like a " kick in "

effect, but I did. I don't like taking medication but I know the effects

weren't just in my head. It is hard to describe how I felt. I kind of got

that restless leg feeling, a little anxious, the feeling of dread would set

in. Does that make sense? Kind of like a little black cloud would be over

me. The exact opposite of what that drug is supposed to do. Hope that

helps. Is that how it makes you feel?

I will take your advice and not look out the window while is playing.

We will probably both be happier that way. My kids went back today also.

The house is too quiet. We are expecting a snow storm, which here in GA we

are never prepared for so I am sure they will be home tomorrow. Thanks for

the very sound advice. Appreciate it.

Cari
