Hi,

some follow up questions...

When you say that some ADs partially worked for a short time, does this mean that they stopped working after some period of time?
If so can you specify how long they did work?
Or did you terminate the antidepressant even though it did work mainly due to side effects?

Also what side effects were causing the antidepressant to be so unbearable in your mind?

In what sense are you "sensitive" ?

thanks for the follow answers.

maybe I can give you some more thoughts with
some for feedback.

regards
john
