the guy just refused to listen to me. His treatment was a total failure. He's had me on Lexapro for about 7 months now, increasing the dosage each appt., but it never worked. I would always suggest getting on a different med but he refused and expected me to stay on it even though it wasn't working. I really want to try Effexor for my SA, ocd, and depression. Hopefully this next p-doc will be a little more flexible and let me experiment with different meds until I find the right one.
