I'm on zoloft and it has helped me wonders. But it didn't start to help till about after a month and I have to take a higher dose of it for it to be effective. The only bad side effect I noticed is that it has completely diminished my libido. But it does definitely improve my mood. Before the zoloft I was on effexor and that was crap it did nothing for me, good luck to you and I hope it works!! Keep posting here this is an excellent forum! :)

Hi,

Don't know a lot about this one except that it's an SSRI with a similar side-effect profile to Fluoxetine (Prozac), and over here it's called Lustral.

What I do know is that there's a lot of postings about it on the Depression Forum. They would probably be helpful.

Best wishes.
