>I hear ya, I couldn't cry very easily on Prozac but had no problem crying on Zoloft. I felt tons of empathy and even cried for others while on Zoloft. Prozac on the other hand really blunts my emotions. I wouldn't blame anyone for not wanting to be on a drug that blunts their emotions so much to the point that they can't ever cry about anything.
For me, even when on antidepressants, if I feel really good, I am more likely to be able to be in touch with my emotions and cry just the same as I would off antidepressants.
