Yardena, it sounded like you were describing MY experience on Serzone. I too felt better at first, doc pushed the dose higher pretty fast, and I then got worse and worse. I was a suicidal vegetable when I finally decided it was the drug, not me. Some people do so well on Serzone, others real bad. Anyway, what you describe sounds like a familiar behavior of this drug. I don't think it's your imagination or your depression. What I did, without my doc's permission (was also out on vacation!) was start lowering the dosage as fast as possible without going cold turkey. I started feeling better in just a few days, so I knew it was the drug. Sorry you're feeling bad! JohnL.
