I agree. MS symptoms are activated by stress and anxiety, IMO. Any good AD will do, but, I believe the SSRIs may have a special MO, in working for MS.

Paxil-like SSRIs are the best for anxiety/depression and Prozac-like SSRIs have a bit of an *upper* quality to them and can help us to feel more energetic, while taking away the depression.

They don't work this way for all, but that's the way theses particular ADs have worked for me.

This is interesting but Prozac effected me the same way that it did Moose unfortunately I did not get off of it soon enough so I am back on Cymbalta.
