SalArmy4me...... That was an excellent reference you gave Rose! I found it very useful since I take Wellbutrin and my Pdoc has been pushing up the dose (which I have not continued,now I know that I had the right instincts!).

Rose... I hope you can understand what those references mean for you. But as I have said to you, and others, no drug affects everyone the same, and I'm glad to see some scientific documentation to substantiate that belief!
What better treatment could we receive if our docs, with whom we trust our health, took the appropriate time to research what they do. As I always clamor.... WE ARE NOT ALL VANILLA!!!!

Good to hear you're feeling better!! You weren't sounding so good for a while there.

The two drugs you mentioned are both SSRIs, I believe, they're in the same family of drugs. If they help you, you're lucky cuz there's several to choose from with varying side effects. :)
If they don't, there's always alternatives like Wellbutrin and Effexor and Serzone. :)
