I’ve been on citalopram (Celexa) for 4 months and it isn’t having much effect.

I’m due to see my doctor next week but I’m wondering if anyone has had some success with an anti-depressant they can recommend?

I had severe anxiety and depression for over 15 years and no medication cured it.

Eventually, a new doctor prescribed me with Cymbalta Duloxetine.

It cured my anxiety and depression within about a month.

Best medication I’ve ever been on and saved my life.

I believe Duloxetine treats major depression instead of just depression.

Well, 2 months ago my doctor agreed to put me on a trial of duloxetine and I think I can safely say: I feel “normal”! Meaning I have some happiness in my life again. I didn’t think it would work.

I really appreciate the suggestion @Robby.
