Hey Erin!,

As far as I know, I don't have MS. But I have been on 5 different anti-depressants in the last year. I was diagnosed with Major Depression Disorder and Generalized Anxiety Disorder. I took Effexor before I took the one I am on now. For me, the Effexor worked great for my anxiety, but it didn't work for my depression. It made my suicidal thoughts a lot worse. You have to know that every medication works differently on different people. It may have not worked for me, but it could work for you. If you're not sure about it, like you said, maybe go ask your doctor to be prescribed on a different one?

Right now, I'm on a natural anti-depressant that's just a bunch a vitamins that they've found helps with depression. It's called Enlyte. It's the best one I've been on. It has a bunch of B vitamins and Folic Acid. It may not work so much for my anxiety, but it's worked wonders for my depression. Just a suggestion to look into. I hope you start feeling better Erin! Remember, you're not alone.
