In reply to Re: Diminishing SSRI effects--what now?, posted by JohnL on October 25, 2000, at 16:02:16
Thanks for the suggestions.
I'm trying to remember what people suggested to reply, but I don't know who said what. but here's what's happened in the past with some of the things that people suggested.
Effexor--I was on effexor monotherapy for a while. all it did was make me very constipated. I'm not sure if the stuff was ending up in my bloodstream or my stool.
Zoloft--helped the depression, but made me very zonked and dizzy, to the point where I didn't think I should drive more than short distances. Not acceptable.
Wellbutrin--didn't do anything for me, as far as I remember. I was on it right before celexa, and was on both for a little while, but the wellbutrin was then tapered off.
Prozac--made me an anxious insomniac. it was awful--I'd never had anxiety before then.
Zyprexa and Risperdal--I'm allergic to zyprexa, and had side effect problems with risperdal. so they're both out.
I seem to be doing a lot better in the past 1 1/2 days, so I'm not sure what the med efficacy situation is now.
