Robert,
This info re: your pharmacist and his being willing to fill others' scripts is no less than amazing! I have made a note on all.
So VERY kind of you to post this, and thanks, also, for your encouragement in your post following.
BTW, my main lifelong diagnoisis is, and has remained - until now, hopefully! - Major Depressive Illness, recurrent. Moderate to very severe. I have HAD to be off an antidepressant for 6 months! - longest I've ever gone, and, due, wholly, to my unbearble GI problems on the pill-form antidepressants passing through the gut. The last 2 months have been VERY scary. (What I think of as abit lesser and/ or "breakthrough"/ waxing and waning diagnoses are: GAD, PTSD, and OCD.) So, I am taking the Emsam, first and foremost, for MDD.
However, it surely seems to be helping the GAD and PTSD for me also already; not so sure about the OCD (yet).
Went to my therapist today (my day #2), and she is beyond amazed. I was going to have to start EMDR again; now she feels no need to. Says she's never seen me, over this last decade/+ with her, so focused and able to stay on topic. She does not feel there is anyway all this can be a placebo effect.
Thanks again!
