Thanks everyone for your inputs..I have a lot to think about. A big part of the reason I haven't asked the doctor to try more meds is because I'm not so sure I trust them myself. It is scary to read (and experience some) of the side effects. I can't help but think if the body can react negatively and have terrible withdrawals, what might the meds be doing to us and our brains long term? But then I ask myself is it better to be feeding the body chemicals and not knowing the damages that are possibly being done, or suffer through depression and the negative effects from that? I wonder...
