I can see what you're saying, and thank you for taking the trouble to post.

I have had a crappy time with a few different ADs which I have never managed to last longer than a few months. A dosage of prozac that actually worked made me really sick, celexa made me put on a shocking amount of weight, paxil is actually sweet except that i don't sleep that well.

and ive had all the 'take it for a year at least and see what happens after that' and i guess the whole thing just doesn't sit that comfortably with me. i find throwing myself into work has helped a lot and mostly once i get out of bed i can have a pretty normal day. i dont want to have to take drugs to maintain normality.
