If your going back an forth to his office when side effects start he not be able to treat you. I told you you get worse before better on a new med , its all about time.

Doesn't matter, Lexapro made me sick as hell too.
Yeah, but when I can't leave the
house I am so sick on the side effects that NO ONE hardly ever gets with whatever med of choice, I'll stay depressed, thanks.
Some things you can't "wait" to get better on, and with the side effects I was having (hallucinations, short term memory loss, food poisoning like symptoms where I moved into the bathroom for 3 days) my pdoc said to stop each of the meds. I was told THESE SYMPTOMS ARE NOT NORMAL...not like that wasn't obvious...and would not improve.) And he is focusing on "fixing" my depression, not my OCD, but he would like to help my anxiety and OCD as well.
We have tried so many my pdoc had given up...I don't blame him for this, I am impossible to medicate with drugs used for depression.
