And I mean that literally! The only AD's that work for me are the sedating ones (tricyclics, remeron). Unfortunately, they are also the ones that cause weight gain. I've been on many different AD's and each time I think "I WILL NOT gain on this one." But it happens.
This doesn't really answer your question, but I think the drug companies are trying to find a "magic bullet". Think of all the money they would rake in!
In the meantime, I did read a book by Sylvia Brown (psychic) and she claims that in the next 10 years or so scientists will be making the connection between depression/anxiety and proteins found in the body (whatever that means), and that there will be a test that a person will take to see which protein that person is lacking.
Again, not really an answer to your question, but interesting anyway.cherylann
