I've been on celexa and wellbutrin for around a year now after struggling with depression for a really long time. For the past few months I've been constantly feeling light headed and dizzy and sometimes are worse than others. I'm 15 years old and around 115lbs. Im on 40mg (I think) of celexa and I dont know about the wellbutrin. I feel nauseous a lot too and I'm almost always tired but have a hard time going to sleep because my mind is racing so much. I feel shaky and spaced out and sometimes I can't answer people's questions because my brain won't let me speak. I asked my mom about it and she thinks I'm overmedicated but I'm too scared to go off my medication because my depression had gotten so bad that I couldn't do anything but lie down in bed and stare at the wall and occassionally cry because I felt like I was out of tears. A lot of times if I'm at school once I start getting dizzy everything looks far away and weird. Sometimes my body shuts down and I can barely move and I'm so confused. I'm sick of living like this I just want to be happy please help me someone.

    Oh sweetie, I am so sorry you are going through this. Please tell your mom to take you to the hospital. There are other medication that you can try because what you are using is not helping you. But see a doctor as soon as possible. Praying for you. Mina

    You need to call your Dr who prescribed you the Medication and tell him/her what you are feeling. It sounds as though, your getting a bad Reaction to the Meds. At anytime taking Psych Meds and you don't feel right, get in contact with your Dr and report immediately what your feeling. To me, it sounds like you need to stop those Meds, and the Dr needs to find something else for you to try. I myself, it took me close to 6 yrs to find the Meds that worked for me. It's very aggravating to go through Meds until you find the one that works for you.
