Can anyone tell me an antidepressant that is fine. I was on Zoloft, and it made me sick to my stomach and dizzy. It did calm me wonderfuly. However, I don't know if I can take the symptoms.

I am finding that I need something again to take this edge off. I just feel so nervous and sad too much. Just finding myself wanting to give up on my marriage......

I'm taking Paxil, and have had no side effects. Talk to your doctor and get some suggestions. There are many that are well tolerated.

I am taking Welbutrin and have no side effects whatsoever. It has no sexual side effects either, in fact, I would say it enhanced it a little.
I take it 2x a day for the past 3 yr. Ask your Dr. about it, see if its right for you.

My husband has been taking prozac for five years and he is depression-free and side-effect free and I can tell you it is the best thing that ever happened to us.

I had a homeopath's potion!
3 times a day, for one and a half week before it had any effect, but the wait was worthwhile. I was calmer, happier, and could let go of a lot of things. I wasn't overwhelmed by emotions, and could see things in its perspective, ie I could see how callous my ex was in his infidelity. I began to let go. No side effects. In fact, it did a lot to lift that fog. My relationships at work got better too. I became more cooperative with my superior, and he noticed the change in me.

Thing is, the potion cannot keep. It has a pretty short shelf life, like two months or less. I also tried Bach's Flower Remedies. Same concept as homeopathy, but milder. Used it on my depressed cat (it's also common use for animals) and had unbelievable results. Better results with animals... they don't hide their feelings.

I was on the potion for about two and a half weeks, and was free for about four months before I had another dose, to manage my anger. That's all I took in ten months.
