> I had one pdoc that (when SSRI's were switched), would want me off the one I was switching from for one week. But, the main reason was to not confuse the effects of the old with the new one. I don't think you have to wait-because your receptors would already be down-regulated (changed), by the previous med (I would think anyhow). Let me guess.. You switched from Effexor to something else and the something else is not doing very well??

yep i switched to celexa 40 mg
not sure it's less effective than effexor, but i am sure that i'm still moderately depressed (and i would be much worse if not for the ritalin)

i wonder if i should raise it to 60, or wait another week.. i've been at 20 mg for 4 days, 40 mg for about 11 days

dude this celexa is sweet, no tremors, no high blood pressure, and my libido is returning
