In reply to Zoloft vs. Prozac, posted by Majandra on April 6, 2001, at 11:08:07
This is a totally uneducated guess, but I do great
on prozac--and it usually takes me no time at all
to notice a big difference in my mood. It seems to
me like you've waited a reasonable amount of time to
see some improvement. Since prozac is an SSRI, and so
is zoloft, I would guess that you just might have a similar
response to it. Personally I would try a non-SSRI, and
see if you get a better response. I would try Wellbutrin, since
it is more activating and it dosen't have the sexual side effects
or weight gain associated with the SSRI's (prozac, zoloft,
celexa, luvox). I think that usually if a drug is the right
drug for you, it dosen't take a really long time to respond to it.
Just my humble opinion.
