G'evening everyone! I am new to this community and posting so bear with me
As my bio says, I have been suffering from depression for over 12 years, becoming MUCH worse in the last 3-recently diagnosed with major depressive disorder. I have tried different drugs, some worked, some didnt, some did for awhile and then stopped...The red ones, the blue ones, the green ones...lol.....Since my depression has worsened, I am on a quest to find the right treatment which as you all know is very frustrating....Ok here is where I need the advice....

Doc just started weaning me off of Zoloft because it is becoming ineffective. I am taking 25mg per evening now.

Doc started me on 10mg of Celexa. The first week I take the Celexa and the Zoloft together. The following week I take Celexa on its own. At the end of the 2nd week I go back to the doctor. She is at that time going to up my Celexa dose and also try to put me on an add-on medication. I have heard of all of the add-on medications, but would just like some commentary on peoples experience with them. I researched alot of them, but with so much on the market, its nice to get some real time feedback! Thanks for all your help!
