> Then over more time, I started to feel flat and kind of unmotivated--the poop-out.Actually, that can be a little confusing -- "poop out" can mean either of two things: the apathy that SRIs can cause some people, or tachyphylaxis, where the drugs stop working. The flat and unmotivated could be either one, of course...
And I think my reaction to Lexapro was similar to yours -- what I remember most was sitting in the marriage counselor's office, wanting to say something, but finding it was too much trouble to bother. I didn't even raise my head that session, just -- continued oxygen exchange and other metabolic functions. The only time I would eat was if the food was put in front of my mouth, and even then it wasn't worth the effort after a couple of bites. Funny thing -- I didn't stick it out all that long...
