Baracuda, I feel really sad for you too, its crap when things don't work out like you hoped they would. I know some people would say you should give it another week or two, but at 4 weeks I guess you can pretty much tell.
Have you tried any of the other SSRI's ? I am currently taking celexa, on week 3 and didn't think it was working, but the last few days have been good for me. Although I know we all react differently to these meds.
What about a different type of AD like Wellbutrin or Effexor ?
I guess your best bet is just to go back to the doc, I really hope you find something that works for you....let us know how you're doing !
