Fluoexetine (Prozac) was a game changer for me. Complete game changer. Prior to being put on it I had tried a few others that did not really put a dent in my depression. Was still sleeping all the time, couldn't really get out of bed, crying everywhere and anywhere over every little thing. I was truly a mess and felt like there was no light at the end of the tunnel. Then came the Prozac and I was working, being social again, working out. Was successfully on it for about 10 years.

I have treatment resistant depression. I just started transcranial magnetic stimulation. I’m two weeks into it and feel some effects. 6 to 8 weeks of it total excluding weekends. I think it’s working

The health care system isn’t the same anymore. People that really need help can’t get it or afford it. 😥

Awesome👍 I've tried Celexa, Lexapro and Paxil. They work for awhile, then, nothing and Dr won't increase the strength. Now, my Dr is retired and I don't have health insurance to go to another doctor😥

Well I have been lucky. I have only been on two, Wellbutrin and Zoloft and they both have worked for me. Right now I am just on Zoloft.
