I'd like to hear some positive stories about antidepressants?

I've been on Trazodone for about a year, and before I started I had really bad social anxiety and depression. I could really tell no difference at first (the first couple of weeks I was on it) besides being extremely drowsy in the morning and disoriented. But after about four weeks the drowsiness went away and the only side affect I had was occasional headaches. Three months in it wasn't helping with my sleep any more and my dosage was upped. At the time I started it was medication or suicide. The way I look at it is, the medication will probably slowly harm your body, but it's worth a try, right? Well, it did help with my mood for a while, but then it seemed to make my depression seriously worse. So, my doctor upped me to 300 mg. (Don't ask me how that makes sense, it really doesn't.) I am finally back down to 100mg (what I started on) but I am using it in conjunction with Lexapro (which I'm pretty sure is the same as Celexa) and Seroquel. I don't have the horrible side affects with Lexapro, I'm sorry you did. It's really all trial and error with these medications. I have been on the Lexapro and the Seroquel since the 14th of last month, and now I feel great. I feel like there's something to look forward to and life is worth the effort. Good luck. Don't give up.
