Thanks,
I'll try... I am just very impatient (now which disorder is that??)... I saw a pdoc after the birth of child #1 but I was nursing so they couldn't help me... then pg with #2&3 (twins) and nursing them... so I have been waiting since 1999 to try new meds.Also, my hi-tech hubby just took a paycut and I am afraid that my psychiatric budget will be cut before I find the right med/combo. uugh
