 I have been on lexapro 20mg for several weeks and I feel my depression is worse. I don't know what else to ask for. I have tried wellbutrin and cymbalta and they didn't seem to help. I go to the psychologist on Monday. I see my psychiatrist later this month. I only get 15 minutes so I have to be ready,

 I am currently back on Prozac. I was on cymbalta but it really messed with my head, and I gained a lot of weight on it. I have taken prozac before with success, and this time around also, I feel much much better. I am more upbeat, and happy. Even my family has seen the change. The reason I had changed to Cymbalta is because of its ability to help with pain. It did help my leg pain, my neuropathy, and I miss that about it. But I am now taking 2 Klonopin at night instead of one and that seems to be doing the trick.

 I had a complete affect on cymbalta. I have never tried prozac. I have to have something. I feel like I am sinking.

 It is so hard to find the right one. I have tried Paxil, Zoloft, Wellbutrin, Effexor, and more. Prozac seems to be the one for me. Thank goodness it is only $4!!
