I have many antidepressants I can't give a full try because I'll get depressed anxious while waiting for the next one to take weeks to work if it even will. I don't see how y'all do it.

Patience and the desire for a better life is the way I did it. Side effects don't last forever...it just takes a little time for the medication to kick in. Better than being depressed all the time...

Ditto. Other than not working, this is the biggest problem I have with anti depressants. Weeks feel like years when you're really depressed.
