I’m feeling frustrated. Does the medication increase some anxiety? Affect heart rate? And cause daytime sleepiness? Do these symptoms pass?
I’m on day 7 of Celexa (10mg) does daytime tiredness go away?

What you're describing are common to very common side effects when you first start a medication like Celexa. They affect about 1-10% of users.
Be patient... side effects resolve rather quickly and you should also start feeling improvements in the first two weeks.
"Side effects have been reported to be generally mild and transient. They are most common during the first 2 weeks of treatment and decrease in intensity and frequency with continued treatment. They generally do not lead to treatment cessation."
