Ok, but I am not aware of any studies having been made that suggested Prozac was better then other SSRIs in any way. I would have no trouble believing it. I certainly felt less bad on Prozac than I did on Zoloft but that sort of thing is very subjective. I just need to see a study that says "Fluoxetine has shown superior to Drug X in treating X problem" Nothing very complicated. I
have not seen that. I know you can find every study under the sun at www.mentalhealth.com but which one is it? I am not asking questions about neurochemestry here.
> Hi Else,
> All the research in the world is available at www.metalhealth.com. That's where I study about most things. It would be too cumbersome and time consuming for me to pick and choose research reports in my own biased manner. And besides, I am not technically trained enough to understand what a lot of them explain. Other people can probably understand the stuff better than I can. I go with what works in the real world frequently, but admittedly do not have the technical ability to explain the phenomenon of why certain things work better or more frequently than others. I think it is better that each person go to the website and see all there is to see with their own eyes, and pick and choose what they personally want to study, rather than me spoon feeding. Everything I ever claim and believe is backed up by enormous amounts of research at www.mentalhealth.com.
