I think this drug might be very good for some people, some people swear by it, but I'm not sure if it's worth the risk (pdoc should make the patient aware and should try other drug therapies first) for mild or moderate depression. I,m running out of options, looking for cocktails of meds for treatment resistant depression. I guess it was worth a try, but I wish my dr. would have listened to me 5mos. ago when I told her it was a worthless drug to me, she just kept pushing it and I get sick of arguing too. Oh well, spilled milk- what do I do now, you know? I really don't want ECT since I was able to avoid it for about 25yrs. now! Also, I'm involved in one on one therapy for 15yrs. now, this helps ALOT. I will keep posting my experience, it should get interesting... Bye.
