In reply to what ssri is least likely to cause mania/psychosis, posted by borderliner21 on February 9, 2002, at 15:12:30
> I am taking risperdal for schizoaffective disorder. I want to add an ssri sometime soon for depression and low self confidence. Which ssri would be the best for me? Celexa maybe?
Celexa is a good choice because it is quite *weak* compared to the others. Paxil is also a good choice due to short half-life. Just keep the dose TINY. I have had quite intense hypomania from SSRI's. But, in small doses they are helpful for anxiety, etc.
