>Well, I had not been considering trying another SSRI, but I don't want to rule anything out. I am curious about Cymbalta, I know some people who love it, plus I have heard that it is "strong," in the words of some doctor, and that it hopefully wouldn't just be Effexor the Experiment Part 2. I think Cymbalta plus Wellbutrin, which a family member takes, with some success, would be an interesting combo. It's been years since I tried Zoloft, but back in the day when I was misdiagnosed as MDD and took it as monotherapy, it left me with completely flat affect and total anorgasmia. I don't remember it helping at all really, except that maybe I was more sedate and less out of control for a while. My situation has changed such that I need something stimulating at this point.
