[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 236386, member: 6546"] The psychiatric hospital started her on 10mg once per day and then upped it to 20mg per day upon discharge (mid-November). Before hospitalization...she had what I would call a "hair-trigger temper". She was always irritable and it wouldn't take much to set her off into a full-blown rage. She as been this way for years and was diagnosed as ADD/ODD. However, as she has been getting older the rages have been getting more intense and she had been talking about killing herself or her family or both. It was the threat of suicide that got her admitted to the psychiatric hospital, where she was diagnosis with depression and anxiety. The effect of the Celexa was dramatic--no anger at all...and kind of a new awareness of what was going on around her. It was different--but good! But now we are seeing what I would call "breaking through". It's as if the "angry personality" is breaking through the Celexa haze. I will see it come across her face all of a sudden--and then I think "[I]Uh-Oh! Here we go...".[/I] [/QUOTE]
