> I am having a very hard time finding the right kind of medications for my depression. I've been on Zoloft,Serzone, and lots more to many to mention.I am now on Prozac and all I want to do is sleep. The Dr. acts like he doesnt no what else to try. I'm so tried of trying different medications. I have a drug store in my on home.What can I do?
Paula - Over three and a half years I tried just about every combination of antidepressants possible. Often there was a good initial response, which faded after a few months. Remeron was the best for me, and it was supplemented by Welbutrin. You may want to find out about ECT. It can be very effective. Try:
