> yes, i feel extremely spacey as well. i remembered that from the first time i tried it many years ago. have you found an alternative that works better for you?

I really don't know what to suggest for you. It depends upon how tolerable the side effects are. Are they currently preventing you from functioning? Zoloft and Lexapro are probably the SSRIs that are most commonly prescribed. I don't think that one can consider Zoloft fully explored until they reach a dosage of 200mg.

I am only partially responsive to a combination of a MAOI and TCA. I have also found Effexor to be helpful. I am seemingly refractory to all currently available treatments, so I don't think that I represent the average case of depression.

Currently:

nortriptyline 150mg
Savella 200mg
Lamictal 200mg
Abilify 10mg
lithium 300mg
