You hit the nail on the head Snoopy, *Normal*, that's exactly what Paxil did for me. I hate that these meds quit working, after awhile. I will probably give Lexapro a try and if it doesn't work, Cymbalta or Effexor or etc..... till I find the one for me.

It was re-tested for attention-deficit disorder and that's what it's approved for now. I decided to try it because Ritalin was no longer working so well for my attention adn concentration problems due to the "dizzyfog."

I.ve never heard of this one, Nancy, but it sounds like it may give you an energy boost, like Prozac, and I couldn't take prozac for that reason. Hey I may try it though, if none of the others work. Like Snoopy, I just want to feel normal again.
Thanks to you all for your great imput. I don't know what I'd do without you.
