> How many months?
.........This was many years ago, and I think I was on it close to a year. The poop out started about 7 or 8 months into it, I think.
>What have you tried since?
........Gee, would that my memory still existed! Let's see, I've tried Serzone, Wellbutrin, Effexor, Prozac (prior to Zoloft), amitriptyline, Risperdal. I think that covers most of them. Oh, SAM-E and Adrafinil. I still take Wellbutrin, but I'm at too low a dose to notice much because I don't have medical insurance and can't afford it.
>I've gotten glimpses of that "normal" feeling with other ADs, but they pooped out too.
.........My pdoc at the time said Zoloft was well-known for pooping out. Nothing I've tried sense has come close to the effectiveness of Zoloft, but Risperdal did help.
