Hi!

I know SSRIs work for some, but I always felt very numb, foggy and detached on them -- which made me feel stuck in a limbo and unable to engage with anything. I need to feel some responsiveness to stimuli and my environment. I believe Brintellix improves cognition, which is a plus.
Brintellix (vortioxetine) is only a weak serotonin reuptake inhibitor. It tends to enhance cognition, not blunt it.
