Every person is different, and reacts accordingly. You cannot even attempt to "prescribe" yourself on a forum. Once a doctor prescribes, you can always ask if you are experiencing side-effects, but even those differ from person to person. Antidepressants are not like Benzos, and cannot be blanketed across the board to a wide variety of people. They're much more specialized.

depends I think on what works for you personally. I was on fluoxitine (is that how you spell it???) and that worked but for like forty percent of people it doesnt. You might have to try several before you find one that works unfortunately. On that I just felt sort of numb. But on the plus side I lost weight lol

alydar is 100% right. You need to talk to your doctor. Also, keep in mind that it is trial and error. It may take a while to find the right antidepressant for you.

For me, i just started antidepressant med's my doc started me off with Celexa, i've only been on it for a few days, so i'm not really sure what it's going to be like when it's fully in my system..but some of the side effects i have are dry mouth and a really bad chalky taste on the roof of my mouth and the back of my tongue.I hope that this will go away after my body gets use to it..i'm not sure if i'll stay on these meds all depends on how well i react to it after it's in my body fully!i go back to my doc in a month to find out! Good luck to you!!!!

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
