I was just curious have you had bad reactions to ssri's or were they just ineffective at lifting your depression? just curious because I am on an ssnri and I'm continuing to cycle...I'm curious to start on a mood stabilizer such as tergretol. Have you had any noticeable side effects from it? Is it necessary to do blood testing like you would need to with lithium?
