Wow, my depression story reads much like yours Eowyn. The only difference is that not only did I have to change my anti-depressant, but I then had to keep increasing it. I have to admit, I was rather resistant and my Dr. was not pushing me (which I appreciate). But now that I'm on a higher dose of Paxil (yes, a rather old med), I'm so much better. I now have the emotional stamina to take better care of myself.
