It's an antidepressant used to treat major depression, anxiety/panic attacks. As a former user, I wouldn't recommend it unless you really need it. I experienced horrible trembling side effects when on it, and the withdrawal was worse.

Celexa is an SSRI commonly used to treat depression. Whether it is bad for you is debatable among users and the medical community and depends largely on your individual body and how you take the medicine. Possible side effects include anxiety, restlessness, chest pain, weight loss, unusual bleeding and unusual bruising.

it is an SSRI drug, thus it forces the body to produce more serotonin rather than allow the re-uptake of it to the brain.
