Initially I was against antidepressants too but came to understand how they may be beneficial in my recovery. Unfortunately they may result in a very road at times, particularly in the early weeks of starting them, but when the right agent/combination is used they have the potential to offer relief from pain, aid in sleep disturbance, anxiety, etc.

For me, I'm still undergoing regimen tweaking. In looking back, there's a couple anti-depressant's that I truly disdain, but more recently I'm experiencing some increased pain relief an increased dosage of Cymbalta.

They're definitely not for everyone, but they can be useful.

Durind the time I was on AD I had a very bad times. I had never felt so sad, couldnt sleep, eat, l4ve, anything. I had Cipralex and Asentra. Moreover, the problem is that this medicament doesnt resolve PCS problems only suppress.
