Thanks Lara... good input as usual...

I forgot to mention that there has been new discussion about the perceived efficacy of antidepressants, or lack of efficacy thereof.

This is one article from 2010:

There remains some controversy today in fact.

But the bottom line, is that if the drug(s) are not working, or if add on drugs are needed to minimize side effects, etc, then patients need to consider that a therapy change should be discussed with the doctor.
