Hi Noa.
> How are you doing?
Not too well. It seems pointless to complain, though. Thanks for asking.
I know this sounds silly, but I've never tried Zoloft. My previous doctors felt that my failure to respond to Prozac and Paxil indicated a low probability of my responding to any SSRI. They were probably right, but it doesn't make sense to leave this stone unturned. I've never tried Luvox or Serzone either. I guess in a way that gives me something to look forward to. My best hope for now is Cymbalta (duloxetine). Unfortunately, the earliest it would make the pharmacy shelves is summer. If one is partially responsive to Effexor, perhaps they would be responsive to Cymbalta as well. Both drugs are SNRIs.
I think I may ask to try Adderall at some point in time. If it helps at all on a daily basis, it would be worthwhile.
I'm having a tough time hanging on to hope.
