Well, to be fair, Luvox helped me an awful lot in my postpartum depression. If I ever felt bad enough again for long enough, I would reluctantly go back on it.

I think my problem was that I stayed on it too long and the pdoc kept increasing my dose to the max, and wanted to increase it past the max, and ignored the fact that a lot of the symptoms he was trying to treat were caused by the drug itself, at high doses.

My next pdoc immediately added a mood stabilizer and it made a huge difference.

So my problem isn't so much Luvox as it was a stubborn pdoc.

Except that I do think it made me stupid and wrecked my concentration.
