Effexor makes people hostile.

Pitt should take it to get his angry back.

Effexor is what worked for me, but I'm off of it now because I'm broke. And I have no health insurance.

And the Big Bad Bush won't give me any health insurance. And I can't get on my life partner's health insurance. So I'm broke and depressed and it's all Bush's fault.

having had some personal experience with depression, this DuFu is quite interesting. Any therapist or program of recovery worth a flip will tell you that you have to take responsibility for your own mood. Pills can only help take away the funk to give you the chance to work on your habits. Either you can change, or the rest of the world can change.

These idiots on DU blame everything wrong in their lives on Bush, and wonder why they don’t get any better. Then they come together to affirm the evil of Bush, thereby perpetuating the negativity that permeates their lives. DU is literally a support group for idiots.

MY medical 2c...

Was having sleep difficulties several years ago. Doc perscribed Xanax (should have given me a mild sleeping pill instead, now I have a new doctor, but I digress....)

I took it three nights, and stopped because it scared me so much. I didn't care about anything - going to bed, getting up, house on fire, nothing. I have no idea how people function on the stuff. In fact, one of my co-workers confided to me that she was taking twice the dose that I had. She's less than 1/2 my size, taking twice the meds...We used to go to lunch occasionally, now I won't ride in a car when she's driving.

Disclaimer - I'm sure that it affects different people different ways. And, I'm sure that it does some people plenty of good. But not me.

On a related note, let’s look at some side effects of anti-depressants why don’t we:

http://www.heroinaddiction.com/other_psyc.html

Prozac- Headache, nervousness, insomnia, drowsiness, anxiety, tremor, dizziness, fatigue, sedation, poor concentration, abnormal dreams, agitation, convulsions, apathy, euphoria, hallucinations, delusions, psychosis

Celexa- Headache, nervousness, insomnia, drowsiness, anxiety, tremor, dizziness, fatigue, sedation, poor concentration, abnormal dreams, agitation, convulsions, apathy, euphoria, hallucinations, delusions, psychosis

Paxil- Headache, nervousness, insomnia, drowsiness, anxiety, tremor, dizziness, fatigue, sedation, abnormal dreams, agitation, apathy, euphoria, hallucinations, delusions, psychosis

Zoloft-Insomnia, agitation, somnolence, dizziness, headache, tremor, fatigue, paresthesia, twitching, confusion, ataxia, gait abnormality (elderly)

Effexor- Emotional lability, vertigo, apathy, ataxia, CNS stimulation, euphoria, hallucinations, hostility, increased libido, hypertonia, hypotonia, psychosis

Wellbutrin- Headache, agitation, confusion, seizures, akathisia, delusions, insomnia, sedation, tremors

Tofranil- Dizziness, drowsiness, confusion, headache, anxiety, tremors, stimulation, weakness, insomnia, nightmares, EPS (elderly), increased psychiatric symptoms, paresthesia

Asendin- Dizziness, drowsiness, confusion, headache, anxiety, tremors, stimulation, weakness, insomnia, nightmares, EPS (elderly), increased psychiatric symptoms, paresthesia, impairment of sexual functioning

—and this only reflects the central nervous system disorders. It doesn’t really go into what happens to you mentally if you have urinary retention problems, diarrhea, cramps, epigastric distress, delayed ejaculation, anorgasmy, decreased libido, or impotence.

Not even 24 business hours.

[Seek help. Call the emergency BDS hotline: 1-800-BUSH-WON.]

DUMB AND DERANGED (The BDS Song)
Tune: "Home on the Range"

Oh, name a syndrome where the DUmmie mouths foam
Where the gloom and the doom dominate
Where tempers are frayed and offenses are laid
And the posts are all driven with hate

Oh, name a disease that has symptoms like these
Where such rage and such anger are shown
Every button you push always ends up with Bush--
It's a classic derangement syndrome!

DUmb, DUmb, and deranged!
Where the fear and the lack of hope stay
Where "Bush" is referred as a four-letter word
And the skies are all cloudy and gray

So if someone you see starts to curse randomly
And their face starts to quiver with stress
They're not having a stroke, they're just Democrat folk--
It's a case of what's called BDS

Bush Derangement Syndrome has no cure that is known
It's a chronic and terminal fate
'Cause the Diebold decree is that Chimpy will be
Re-elected in 2008!

DUmb, DUmb, and deranged!
Where the fear and the lack of hope stay
Where "Bush" is referred as a four-letter word
And the skies are all cloudy and gray

Keep seeing your doctor. Keep seeing your therapist.

Keep seeing Chimpy McBush in your nightmares.

[You might also want to consider the very targeted, low dose lobotomies.]

Will Pitt says, "I thought about a frontal lobotomy, but I'd rather have a bottle in front of me."

Unfortunately, it didn't save my marriage, and it may have actually hurt because it killed my sex drive.

Marriage killed your sex drive? It has a way of doing that, doesn't it?

At least that's what I've heard.
