I tried Fluoxetine for a few months with no positive effects coming from it, then was prescribed Venlafaxine which gave me such a bad stomach I was on the toilet nearly every hour leaving me unable to leave the house! I was given Mirtazapine for a couple of months but they just knocked me out so I used them as sleeping aids.

What else is there for me to try?

I desperately need something to help me feel better.
