> I am totally new to the anti depressant drug scene and would appreciate any info on taking Serzone. So far here I havn't seen to many good feelings about it so im a little worried! Any information would be apprieciated. Also, I was wondering what the difference between Prozac and Serzone is. Thanks :)

Naysa, I've tried both medications, and much preferred Serzone. Prozac is an SSRI while Serzone is not; Prozac caused me total anorgasmia and "pooped out" after a while (the beneficial effects stopped), while Serzone doesn't affect sexual functioning in most people and I haven't heard of "poop out" with it. I really liked the Serzone a lot (it really lifted my mood and made me much less socially anxious), but the first two weeks were hard (dizziness, feeling very moody and angry for no reason); if you can tolerate the initial adjustment, it's a great medication. I'd still be taking it if it helped with OCD and not just with depression!--Cindy W
