Ooops. I did have you mixed up with someone else. It was Almeda who said she was on Prozac. I'm all discombobulated.

Something I found strange was that, usually, when a new AD is on the market here, the docs tend to really push it. My doc didn't even mention Cipralex/Lexapro to me, though. I had to ask her for it... and then she said it would probably work well for me.

I don't know why the drug has one name in the U.S. and a different name in Canada and the U.K. I did notice that it's manufactured by different companies in Canada and the U.S. I wonder if that's the reason. Weird, huh?

I'm glad you found something that works for you. Effexor was a nightmare for me. It's so frustrating trying to find meds that work because they affect all of us so differently. It feels like a major accomplishment when we finally find something that makes us feel better and not worse.

P.S. Starting to date again is exciting, but kinda scary.
