Pharmrep:

For each of my former medications, there was a lengthy period of time that I took them. Some I tried for six months at the least and others were for around a year & a half. At one time I was on prozac for four years and a year on celexa and I wasn't too happy with any of them. Even though my doctor said that the side effects would pass and I was aware that all medications take atleast two weeks to take affect (sometimes even months)I took Lexapro for a couple days until I had enough.
I tired of being a guinea pig and getting nothing out of it but confusion and unhappiness; so I attempted an alternative method and I'm very happy with the results.
I had difficulty with ssri withdrawl at first, but now I'm very stable with the help of my behavioral psychologist and through my part in Cognitive Therapy. There is no medication in my body and I'm actually happier and more balanced than I was on the pills. In 1995 I took my first pill and after all these years on medicine, I am now free from pills and so much better.
Thankyou though for your reply and good advice.
