I loved Prozac and Zoloft ten years ago. But each stopped working after a while and when I tried them again years later they did not help at all. I don't think that the SSRI's are great drugs, I just think that (and other people may see this differntly) people do well on them because they are usually the first antidepressants that people take.
I think that in general we start to become resistant to the effects of ADs and that nothing works quite as well as the first ADs that we try.
Since then, the thing that has worked best for me has been Parnate, which I do think is a better drug than the SSRIs.
