Effexor to this day has been the most effective drug for lifting me out of my hole. I was in remission for a couple years until it pooped out. But it did work for me when I needed something to work, and fast. Allowed me to accomplish some big goals, and think clearly to make good rational decisions. It's effects are strong, and you need to give it a couple weeks to adjust. Coming off of it is very difficult too, if and when you need to. But judging on where you are at right now, it may be what you need to put you back on your feet. I too do not respond well to SSRI's. Good luck to you.
