Hi,
I took prothiaden at 25 and it worked within a day. About 4 years later I took Seroxat and that two worked within about 4 days, after taking Seroxat/Sertraline for several years I stupidly came off them. Now 4 years later they no longer seem to work. Like Jerrympls I continue to hold on and persist because I know that there is a better way to feel than like this.
As an additional note, my Doctor also said that it was highly unusual for an AD to work within 24 hours, he even tried to suggest that it was placebo (I know for a fact it wastn't). After reading some of the threads on this board it seems that this istn't so unusual after all. This makes me question the theory that ADs are supposed to take several weeks to work because of having to wait for downegulation of the post synaptic receptors.Denise
