I was thinking of desipramine or an MAOI/RIMA for you. MAOI's are some of the most effective and potent antidepressants still on the market.

> What works for you. It seems we have similar paths like Grapebubblegum too. Here is my list of tried and failed meds...buspar, serzone, remeron, prozac, celexa, paxil, luvox, deseryl, pamelor, zoloft, elavil, klonopin,......and I know I am forgetting a couple. Now over the past 2 years I have given most ot these the good ole college try. Are you saying that if staying on ssri's long enough the side effects become less. My experience is otherwise. I was on only 5 mg prozac per day each time I tried it which was 3 times. The sexual side effects got worse and worse. I was on serzone and remeron not only did I get anorgasmia on both but I felt like a total zombie worse after each dose. Do you have any insight you could share with me. The xanax works best but it is not without it's drawbacks as well.......apathy etc....What's a neurotic middle aged male to do.....LOL
