Hi,
I know exactly what you mean. I foolishly came off Seroxat (which worked wonderfully just as you describe Celexa as working) 8 years ago thinking that I'd never get depressed again. Four years later the depression came back and nothing would work for two years apart from Zyprexa. Then a higher dose Seroxat started helping but never as well as it did before.
I asked my Psychiatrists why they don't work anymore and they haven't a clue. Istn't it a pity that they don't give scans by default when they prescribe antidepressants although I know it would be expensive.
I'd love to know what was happening in my brain when the Seroxat worked compared to what was happening when it didn't work.
I'd like to know what is happening in my brain after I take a Zyprexa as well.
Anyway I know exactly how you feel, if I hadn't got the memory of how these antidepressants can work when they do I wouldn't have anything to cling onto.
All the best
Denise
