Does anyone else get really tired during the day? I don't feel depressed but if I go out only for a couple of hours I get really sleepy and want to come home and take a nap. Any ideas on how to help this?

Do you take any SSRIs? that can be a side effect

Yeah, Celexa and I was thinking that's probably what it is. But I don't know if I'm ready to go off it yet. So I don't really know what to do.

I am currently on Celexa as well. I take 20 mg a day in the morning for a about a week now. It makes me kinda sleepy and tired, I still get anxiety usually in the morning and usually about 2-3 hours after I took it, then towards the evening I feel better.

for a while I've been unusually tired and unenergetic, but it doesn't matter since I'd sleep anyway. It's been only 1,5 years but since the drugs don't seem to help I'm probably going to a hospital. Of course not just because of the sleeping

im always tired...always. i usually take naps after school and wake up around 5-6. im not on any meds and im not depressed at all(my brother keeps telling me i am) but im not. my friends ask me to hang out and stuff but i usually tell them im too tired(which is true), i want to go out and do stuff but i feel like i have no energy. even my mom basically tells me im usless(the tone of her voice) by always telling me to go out and stop being tired all the time. i cant help it and i want to know why i feel this way.

I'm the exact same way Red. I come home from school after only being up a couple of hours and sleep until my next class. When I was in high school I was always tired when school got out. It's something about that 2-4 o'clock area that always makes me want to sleep. My mom doesn't tell me I'm useless because she's the exact same way. I went to the doctor once when I was 16 about it and they found nothing wrong. All the nurses said I was 16 and I was supposed to have tons of energy. I wasn't on any meds then either. But the weird thing is, once night hits I'm wide awake. It's like the sun drains my energy. Maybe I need to move somewhere where it's rainy and cloudy all the time... :roll: It's really furstrating because I never get anything accomplished during the day.
