Maybe this is wrong, but I would encourage everyone hear to learn everyting you can about the ssris, If you know how they act with you, refuse to take them, ask to get a second opinion, give a detailed report on how they affect oyou, and demand to be put on something else. I was put on serzone and had to fight like H- to be taken off. It was making me hallucinate, was bringing my dissociative tendencies out into near psychosis, and the pdoc was saying it was just because I was bipolar and didn't want to take my meds. I was sent to another Pdoc who immediateliy took me off. Turns out that the medication was also contraindicated for Beepers for that reason. collect the facts and stick to your guns if it means you have to dump the physician's desk refence in the doc's lap. (might be painful, but garanteed to get his (if he) attention)! end of sermon. Huggs all.
