I couldn't believe your note, it was like reading my own note, your experiences are identical to mine. SSRIs used to work really well for me, zero side effects and I felt great. This time round they have made me exactly like you, pacing, going for long walks in a total state of despair and agitation, smoking incessantly and wanting to kill myself, it felt as though I was programmed to do it. The only thing that helped me through that period was Zyprexa (and it really did help) but then perhaps a benzo would work just as well.
I tried Remeron and had the same experiences.
I have been taking Zooloft/Sertraline now for over two months and although the agitation is no longer as bad I still don't feel quite right.
Please keep me informed of how you're doing because you sound so like me. I still feel as though I want to die and have told myself I'll give myself another 4 years.Denise
