> "Have you tried any Neurontin with your current meds? I rarely had any "pops" when I was on it and it definitely reduced anxiety a lot. I never had much anger on Celexa, and little on Effexor or Prozac. Have you tried any Celexa?"

> >>>>>>>>Never tried Neurontin......but the Celexa idea may be an interesting one. Because Celexa is supposed to have less s/e's than Zoloft, right? So maybe I could tolerate that better than Zoloft---is that your thinking too Ritch? What's with Lexapro...isn't it supposed to have even less side effects than Celexa (I know it is Celexa's main metabolite (or whatever, lol)? So which of those two, Ritch, Celexa or Lexapro? And, are they still as EFFECTIVE as the other ssri's or are they for milder problems only? p.s. Prozac made me absolutely NUTS with terrible anger! Let me know what you think Ritch but it may be a good idea to switch from Zoloft to Celexa, huh? THANKS SO MUCH for all your help!!!!!!

>Yeah, I would try flipping from Zoloft to Celexa. It will be available as generic citalopram soon-so it would be cheaper as well. Lexapro-I wouldn't bother with it until you've tried Celexa first. All SSRI's are not identical. If I had to take an SSRI and was in a job or surroundings which required an unusal even temper Celexa would be my choice.
