This has worked very, very well for me for quite some time now.

Thumbs up

SG I'd like to chip in with the others and let you know how I admire you for keeping on keeping on tackling your depression, looking for as many ways around it as you can. Good on yer - the Midlands is a better place for you being there!

i wish the very best for you SG. i live with this too, and i make good use of Prozies by using them as they should be used : short term, time limited, deal with the issues, wean off slowly.
if something, whatever it is, works for somebody, it shouldnt be knocked by someone else .... except religion, of course! :p

I'm also on the Lexapro train, with better success than when I was on Zoloft. I'll have to check out the MG when I have a little more time (i.e. the boss is out for awhile). Thanks for sharing SG. I would have never guessed. I love your personality!!! Your one-liners leave me snorting in my tea all the time.

So what do these drugs like Zoloft and Lexapro do to you? I don't mean clinical jargon, I mean what actually happened to you from taking them?

Me?

Zoloft allowed me to come out of the weighted fog I was in for awhile, then quit working. Upping the dosage just made me numb without helping the depression at all. A woman with an ass like mine shouldn't be having suicidal thoughts. I knew Lexapro was working when I felt 'lighter', like it was even easier to breathe. No more thoughts of being useless and wanting to unhook my seatbelt and drive my car into an oncoming semi. I also find I can handle normal everyday annoyances without totally freaking out. We all spill stuff, we don't all totally freak out and throw a literal tantrum. My husband could tell you more what it's like when I'm getting into a funk, he sees it way before I do, and I have learned to trust him (finally).

Did Prozac for a couple years, nothing improved but I didn't give a shit.
Then the Doc yanked my script saying losers aren't supposed to be happy.

Clean for a few years and started Wellbutrin this week.

i'm astonished at the number of people on one kind of pill or another. no offense to anyone, but i'm genuinely surprised that so many take mood altering meds on a regular. i'm starting a poll. i wanna know more about this.
