In reply to Re: Poll regarding Prozac response and nonresponse, posted by Buffet on November 8, 2000, at 21:43:14
I first tried Prozac, and it made me really, really jittery; since I was a nervous wreck anyway during my depression, I stopped it after 4 days. I had no response to Wellbutrin and partial response to Nortriptyline- so they added lithium to the mix. A year of Nortrypt. and lithium later, I tried another SSRI, Zoloft, and it worked very well. I sometimes wonder whether the Prozac would have worked if I'd stuck the nervousness out and waited a few weeks. It would have saved me a pretty ghastly year.
