He shared his concerns with me about addiction, and I compromised by saying that I would try Zoloft (really only because a friend of mine with PD has has success with it.) However, I'm starting on a mini-dose of Zoloft (12.5 mg.). Hopefully it won't exacerbate my PD like Celexa did.

Nice work! 10 miles away? What a coincidence...if you believe in them. If you get a bad reaction to the Zoloft are you going to tell him that you don't want to try ssri's anymore? Klonopin (or another BZD) exclusively?Alan
