Michelle, "mixing and matching" is a fact of life for many of us. I started out on one ssri, but after a while, the effect pooped out. At higher doses, the negative effects started to outweigh the desired effects, so after trying a couple of other meds, the mix and match strategy was in order. Augmentation helps to boost the desired effects without adding the negative ones. I used to resist the multiple med approach but now see it as a lifesaver for me, until a new approach comes along that is better.
