>You're on a noradrenergic, aren't you, Meri?
Yep I'm on reboxetine, which isn't available in the states - I live in the UK. I'm finding it great for anixety and panic and fairly good for depression too. I also seem to have better self esteem on it too, I don't know why!
Anyway its just that some people haven't had such a good time on NARIs thats all. I think they are good for atypical depressives like myself as they are more energising and I found that celexa just sucked all life out of me.
I think stattera is a more potent NARI than effexor. Effexor from what I understand is only a moderately effective reuptake inhibitor of noradrenaline at high doses, while it reuptakes sertonin very well at all doses.
Anyway good luck!
take care
Meri
