Zoloft, Prozac and effexor, All seem to have this one set of effects on me that are intolerable. Effective levels of the drug for my depression and anxiety be it 20mg prozac, 100mg ZOloft, not sure about effexor seem to make me profoundly fatigued, or disinhibited. Sometimes the fatigue is so great that I cannot comprehend what is being explained to me in a conversation (SUPER ADD). Or disinhibited to the point of being obnoxious. Definately a part of my brain is put to sleep that controls higher/executive functions. My Cholesterol goes throught the roof on Zoloft. Plus my face swells on Zoloft and Effexor and they are both constipating, and Prozac scares me becaue it makes me disinhibited and it won't leave the body if something goes wrong(also I tried to commit suicide on it 6 years ago). I tried Remeron and Serzone and hated them both...
What can I try now? Does Wellbutrin work for anyone? I have a lot of anxiety, but could always stick some klonopin over the wellbutrin if needed?
Your posts mean everything to me. No doctor would would ever entertain my questions like you folks on this board. Thats why I go in prepared after listening to your posts. Otherwise it's money wasted.
