I truly like Dr. Bob's Forum. However, I have a question that requires additional responses. Does anyone know of other forums like this?

There are others, but none as good as this one. I was looking for an Australian or British equivalent for user info on Reboxetine, but had no luck.
Cheers,

Go to Google.com and click on "Groups". Then put in a search term such as Lexapro or whatever. There are many forums on depression, anxiety, and ADD. I personally like psychobabble better, but I also like to check the usenet groups every once in a while.

I have chronic nervousness and am currently on 37.5mg of Paxil CR and .5mg of Klonopin 4x daily.
The Paxil CR doesn't appear to be making a difference so I will probably be switching to another one of the SSRI's -- such as effexor, wellbutrin...etc.My question:
My husband and I are discussing having another child and I am concerned about the effects on the baby if I remain on meds such as these.I have tried to research information from the web, but I have not been very successful.

i know it's easy for me to say, but, i really don't think that's a good idea. i don't have any info to back this up, but it seems like being on just about any drug while pregnant could have at least some detrimental effects, even if they're not apparent at any point during the child's life. i'm sorry. Hopefully someone can prove me wrong. Good luck.

Hi Lainy,
Ask your doctor or pharmacist. They can give you the most accurate information. Good luck!

>There was an article in the science section of the NYTimes about this a couple of weeks ago. There's also a Canadian org. that helps mothers/prospective mothers deal w/ the question. I posted links to both; check the archives.

Looks like Benzos are OK during Pregnancy, not so sure about SSRI's.
Nothing is ever 100% safe.
