Hang in there: How long have you been on Celexa (citalopram) 10 mg? It usually takes about 4-6 weeks before you see consistent improvement in symptoms. That being said, your dose may need to be adjusted further during this initial period. The lack of energy may be contributing to the weight gain, although it certainly is possible that it is a side effect. Recommend discussing concerns with doctor. Hope this helps. Best.
