ok since i have been on a combo of ritalin and prozac and STILL depressed PLUS craving carbs and gaining weight, sweating and sleeping most of the day away my pdoc finally switched me to lexapro.
i think i might look for another pdoc tho because i was sitting in his office trying to argue with him as to whether or not i felt ok - he kept trying to compare me to 'studies' or 'psychiatric findings/statistics' and i was extremely upset.
when i asked him if the lexapro would be as successful with the irritability and rage as prozac had been he replied "well since you are the only one who doesnt respond to the norm of medications, then i have no idea what to tell you. we just have to wait and see".
is it just me or was that very jerk sounding? does anyone have any information on lexapro? ive done some basic web searching but it all sounds so textbook-ish.
thanks
