Day 14 of upping to 30 mg
Posted , 2 users are following.
i have been on Celexa many time before. This time I have been about 9 months but a month ago I started having the continuous thoughts, anxiety, depression so my Phsy upped me to 30 mg and also told me to tale .5 mg of Ativan three times a day during the uppage. I am on day 15 and the last three days have been horrible, feeling depressed, nauseated, headache etc.... I just wanna feel better its always worked for me. on a side note I have a sinus infection and I was taking some amoxicillin and only took for two days and I got so sick yesterday nauseated, headache, tired fever. Is that normal with an antibiotic?

Hi, you're in the first stages of heightened anxiety and maybe worsening depression since increasing a dosage, alongside any side effects. Antibiotics can cause depression as a side effect. So with the beginning of a new dosage, antibiotics that can cause depression and Benzodiazapines on top I'm not surprised that you're not feeling well at all.

so I stopped the antibiotic I was so sick yesterday and felt so down. so you think the antibiotics could have caused the two days on top of upping my dosage? never knew that about antibiotics

Lots of medications can lower mood,as well as having the infection,colds,flu, allergies and now Covid-19 is causing anxiety and panic attacks. Long Covid. I know because in USA they are treating people with long Covid anxiety and panic with Fluvoxamine,the SSRI I am currently taking.

If you don't suffer from anxiety or depression you probably wouldn't notice that the antibiotics are making you low,but if you're already bad with both you're going to notice then because you're bad enough already. Especially if you're in the first few months of a dosage increase when anxiety is heightened and depression made worse. Dr's tend to be a bit clueless when it comes to mental health.
