Hi Chris. Thanks again for your help. I am interested to know whether you have encountered the apathy/amotivational problems characteristic of ssri's. I know you aren't on them now, but when you took them, did you get that "blah - I don't care" attitude? That has been one of the biggest problems I've had with most of those medications. I was also wondering whether you've tried any kind of consistent exercise, such as fast walking, jogging or swimming? I do find that exercise helps my anxiety a lot. As far as my depression, well, exercise helps alleviate my depression for a while, but when I wake up the next morning, I feel awful again and have to start all over. Just call me Sisyphus.
