Hi,I have tried alot of AD's. I was on Paxil for almost 3 years with great success except very difficult to achieve orgasm on higher doses. I also gained 10 lbs but got it off with exercise good protein diet. Then, Paxil started giving me vaginal dryness and I couldn't take it any more. I have tried Celexa, Lexapro, Prozac, Nortriptoline, and FINALLY have started taking Remeron with great success. It is not an SSRI so NO SEXUAL SIDE effects. It's great. Side effects that are bothersome are immediate weight gain ( I gained 10 lbs in first two weeks) Haven't gained or lost any since (been on Remeron 4 weeks now) I am meeting with my psychopharmacologist Monday who says thre are ways to counteract the weight problem. I'll let you know what drugs he recommends.
HOpe this helps ;)
