Really good advice on the collaborate with your doc...otherwise, you sort of feel like you're getting the Mystery Pill of the month. I've done that and it hasn't worked well. Fortunately, this board provides knowledgable people like yxibow and others to at least raise a red flag if something really foolish is being suggested-and I wish I could say that never happens.
When I was taking Paxil for panic disorder, I found it powerfully stimulating and I'm taking Prozac now and find it sedating-and I know it's supposed to be the other way around. It's amazing how people respond to meds so differently...I wonder if just such information says something that would be useful clinically; that is, "oh, you are stimilated by Paxil but sedated by Prozac, unaffected in any way by Zoloft, and made fearful by Wellbutrin?-well, then that means..."
