Cam,
I am in the same boat as grapebubblegum. I have not had good luck with the ssris even at very low doses prozac at 5mg. celexa at 10mg. I have had bad side efects. I tried buspar 2 years ago and was so dizzy I could not walk almost like serotonin overload. I am beginning to believe that the serotonin connectiion is not for me although I do exhibit some OCD tendencies which would suggest otherwise. I have had great success with the xanax no panics in 2 years. I am curious though about the long term effects of xanax especially on prolactin and cortisol levels....does 1mg per xanax per day effect these levels greatly. I would also like to try st johns wort but am not sure if thes would help with my flat mood which is a result of the xanax use. I thought maybe I could augment the xanax with something natural to offset the only bad side effect of this drug some mild depression........I am done trying to get the ssris to work kind of like fitting square peg in a round hole.....
