I was 150mg of Zoloft for 4 years. It was the first and most successful anti-depressant I ever took. The doctor took me off it for a trial, I relasped within a couple of weeks. I went back on it, and from a miracle drug it stopped working completely (multiple attempts, high doses, augmentation) It took another 5 years to get onto parnate 90mg. After 6 months full remission, the doctor dropped the dose to 60mg--but it was not strong enough, so I went back up to 120mg for 5 years with limited results.
I am now taking 80mg Parnate and 30mg dexamphetamine--which is no too bad
If you are dependent on medication as I am, you take the amount required for full remission--no more, no less, and if you achieve it, don't ever touch it.
