> I liked zoloft a lot better than lexapro. I felt some improvement from both of them on the first day, but zoloft's improvement was more pronounced and encouraging and enduring. Lexapro worsened my depression over time. Zoloft improved it. Lexapro was just too much pure serotonin action for me. Zoloft has a bit of dopamine action to it that I like.

Hi Blueberry,
Thanks for the reply. The main thing I'd like to do is get some libido back. I've learned to live (more or less) with the blah, but it would be nice to experience some joy and enthusiasm.Ray
