> Adamie,
> Unfortunately Reboxetine has caused impotence with most men at this board who have tried it, including me. And I have yet to see anyone who liked it well enough to stay with it. I could be way wrong, but I think most of us at this board would be a whole lot better off to forget antidepressants altogether and look at the other psychiatric drugs instead. Personally I have seen more people with bad depression get well on stimulants and/or antipsychotics than on antidepressants. They're just names anyway. Go with what works. We've all been around the antidepressant circus long enough. Give something else the same fair chance that you give antidepressants.

That is unfortunate regarding reboxetine. I guess I will see what my options are soon enough. Regarding impotense though that really isn't an issue for me since me and my fiance dont plan to ever have children. But if there are some bigger issues then maybe reboxetine would be an unlikely choice. I still have more research to do.

If first a few anti depressants dont work well enough I will deffinetly try anti phychotics. I need to try the typical things first though. Unless my therapist approves a suggestion of Zyprexa I dont know if I will try it in the next two weeks. But maybe I will. I will do some research and if I find some good results then maybe Zyprexa and others you mentioned will be primary choices for me next. I was just planning to keep things simple for now so that is why I asked for thoughts on anti depressants instead of all drugs in general. Thanks for your previous suggestions. You have deffinetly given me a lot of insight as to what may work for my symptoms. Chances are though that I will probably have to choose another anti depressant in this early state. But I'll see. Thanks for replying
