Dear Roland,

Thank you for your wonderful post. I have tried all those SSRIs and definitely they are not made for me. I spent years on them with a clouded sensorium and a total loss of sensations. I took klonopin to overcome the withdrawals of paxil and since then I never looked back. I got my life back with Rivotril. Contrary to popular belief, Rivotril(klonopin) is not addictive to people who really need it. I am off klonopin for more than a month now and I can't sense any withdrawal symptoms except a slight return of anxiety that originally led me to SSRIs. Sulpiride is effectively covering up that anxiety too. But I am concerned of TD and probably dependence. My past experience is very interesting. I could get off Xanax without any major discomfort, but I really struggled to wean off Zoloft and paxil. So, when my pdoc tells me dependence has never reported with sulpiride, my heartbeat goes up. This was the same assurance I got from doc when I began to use zoloft and paxil later. But both proved to be the most difficult drugs to come off for me. I struggled over a year to escape from that ordeal. So when someone tells me we have prozac, zoloft paxil and effexor I thankfully refuse that offer for the sake of my brain. At least I must have a brain left after all.
Percy.
