    Be positive about yourself and of your life and you will not need an anti-depressent,, my mother in law was on the pills and she started acting strange after a month of taking them. Since then, I'v been asking people NOT to take them. A positive attitude towards life is the best anti-depressent one can get.
    Also, I was told that, if you take certain pills continuously for a long time, you become immune to them. So think before you take anymore.

    Hi:
    You need to contact your medical Doctor and relay that message to him because that can be very very dangerous. Rev Lewis Bowman

    It can be very possible, some people find less results from all sorts of medication over time. That is why you should always be discussing this with your doctor.

    Finding the correct medication is like finding a needle in a haystack. You see, there are no tests to detect what exact chemical is out of whack with a chemical imbalance such as depression. It takes trial and error with different medications and different dosages. This is why it is important to be in close contact with the doctor during the first few months.

    Please have dd (what ever that is) contact his/her doctor and update him/her on the status of the medication. It may be time for a dosage change or an actual change in medications.
