SSRI substitute

Posted by jms600 on May 2, 2004, at 16:12:21

Hello,
Can anyone recommend another antidepressant i.e. a Tricyclic or related drug etc, which is as effective as the SSRIs, but doesn't make you so apathetic and lethargic?? I've been on most SSRIs and all they seem to do to me is make me apathetic and lethargic. I just want to lie down and do nothing all day. Even Prozac makes me lethargic.
I don't know what else to try. I was thinking of a Tricyclic but I really don't want the nasty anticholinergic side effects. I don't want to try any MAOIs due to the diet restrictions.
Anyone else found SSRIs to cause apathy and lethargy? What did you switch to?
Thanks!
