Hi Amanda I too am on Celexa 20mg. At first I was feeling the same way you did and I went back to my doctor and she told me the meds take a while to get into my system(just like Josie said) so it wasn't the meds at all but my anxiety about taking the meds. When I went back some weeks later, she upped my dose because my anxiety was still quite high even though I was really working on it. She knows my fear of meds so she has me taking 20mg one night then 25mg the next and so on. My anxiety levels have lowered and it's really making me able to focus on my journaling, deep breathing, muscle relaxation etc. Still have alot of panic upon awakening but I'm working on it. Give the meds some time to get into your system then if you're still having problems, go back and talk to your doctor. Hope this helps
