Frankie,
"...but I guarantee you that if you give something like Effexor, or Prozac, a shot again, and keep the alcohol clean from your system for at least 6 months, you will improve. I guarantee it!" -
come on, you can't promise things like that! Nobody can predict what meds will or will not work for someone. I've tried Effexor, Wellbutrin and so on whilst abstaining from alcohol and they didn't work for me. Sure, abstaining from alcohol will probably increase someone's chances of feeling better but it isn't some kind of universal cure.Also consider that George has tried 26 A/Ds already. We're all here trying to help ourselves and others but guarantees that may not hold are not helpful and possibly harmful.
Rant over, I'll get off my soapbox etc. :-)
pete.
