Hi, BiolaRNurse - thanks! I have heard of that happening to people, I just didn't realize it was so common. I'm dreading the day that happens because I had a hard time finding an AD that worked with minimal side effects - Prozac does that for me. Oh well. At least I can prepare myself for that since it seems that's what going on here.
