I understand you not wanting to put your life on hold while the drs figure out what med will work best for you. But what I am not understanding is why a med would work for PTSD, since you posted this under the PTSD forum??? I was just diagnosed with this last week, and I am trying to understand it.....

You have my sympathy. I hope everything works out for you. (My therapist and psychiatrist are in the same, small office....so it works out well. ).
