How long till you started feeling better on Celexa?

I took Celexa once years ago and am thinking about going back on.  How soon did you notice the difference?

Did you have any side effects?

    I'm on the generic, but I'm sure it's pretty similar.  I started feeling better about 1.5 weeks after I first started taking it.  I went up to 40mg a day {instead of 20mg} after 4 weeks and within a week I could see and feel a huge difference.  It was like a light clicked on right away once I upped my dose.  I am still struggling but just after 2 weeks I am starting to feel "normal" again.

     The first few days originally and the first few days of the new dosage I got a bit sick to my stomach and dizzy.  I've been having trouble sleeping since starting meds.
