No worries, Autumn, you're certainly NOT the first person not to have the predicted response to a given medication. *shrug* I can sum it up with 4 little letters...YMMV. Your Mileage May Vary. Everyone is different. If everything worked as predicted, most of us would only ever have tried one medication in our lives. ;)
Hang in there...and check with your fav pharmacist or Pdoc about taking St John's wort if you can't/won't do the prozac... people said it was bad to take that while weaning off Effexor, but I thought it did the same thing as Prozac only milder, and I took it with no ill effects in fact, my withdrawal wasn't that bad.
anyway, check it out.
My thoughts are with you....
