Thats a pretty narrow minded view point.

I took Celexa, but like I said each one works different for each person, talk to your doc. Yes I was able to function normally. You should find over time that the little things that were making you anxious in the past don't make you anxious anymore, then overtime those little things turn into more significant things. You have nothing to loose by trying them, in my opinion. I also recommend you see a Psychiatrist or Psychologist to help you better understand and help you.

In the meantime there is a TON of reputable info online to educate yourself on the subject.
