Hey manic, first off, I ain't no thread spy! LOL.
Of all the ssri's, I've done best with zoloft. It helped with my depression, anxiety and ocd. I was taking 100mg for over 5 years and have just added zyprexa to help with my mood swings. I had a bit of startup anxiety with the zoloft, thats why I take clonazepam 0.5mg 2-3 times a day, it helps me get through any anxiety untill the zoloft kicks in and that could take 2 or 3 weeks.
I tried cymbalta about 2 months ago... I did not like it!
I do not have major sexual side effect from zoloft - 50 yr. male. Ya, every once in awhile I may have less sex drive but thats just part of my depression, I don't blame zoloft.
You know everyone has their own chemistry so zoloft may or may not be for you, I'd say give it a go and maybe a little clonazepam... if need be?
And goodluck with your upcomming hospital visit. Keep us updated.Regards, Rick
