Thunder.....
I'm sorry this is happening this way for you!!
Can you find a Psychiatrist or Mental Health Nurse Practitioner that specializes in Psycho-pharmacology? They are a lot better at these sorts of things....really!!! GP and GP NP's don't know a whole lot about psychotropics and will usually throw SSRI's at anyone that says they've been crying.
If you can get a person that specializes, I think you would have a different experience. If insurance doesn't cover it, could you save up some money or work a little extra to get money so you could go see someone?
I have been on three different SSRI's and each one has worked a little bit different for me. Prozac just increased my SI...but I was given that as a teen. Zoloft worked well for me for a couple years then just stopped working. Now I'm on Cymbalta, which is an SNRI, and it is working well for me.
There is, unfortunately, a lot of trial and error in finding the right med for each person.
I wish you luck...and I hope your hubby is feeling better too!!
