major depressive disorde
"I have been on Zoloft for 5 years and it was horrible for first 4 months!  Then it began to work.  But after 5 years and had recently upped to highest dose, it stopped working.  So after discussion with psychiatrist, decided to try Lexapro.  I was weaning slowly off the Zoloft and was doing good then boom!  Horrible brain zaps, unorganized thinking, it was terrible!  Psych told me to start with a quarter of  a 10mg tab, as I continued to wean of the Zoloft.  The very next day was great...no more brain zaps, mood stabilized because the side effects from weaning off Zoloft were gone!  I'm now on the full 10mg Lexapro and down to about 10mg of Zoloft.  Lexapro is great so far. I am well pleased.  I also take 1mg Klonipin twice daily."
