Zoloft did nothing. Prozac actually made me have worse panic - 10 hour panic attack (I take/took antidepressants primarily for anxiety). When I did start feeling depressed they just upped the dosage. But that just ended up pissing me off because they didn't listen to a word I said. Celexa worked for me for a while, but I have stopped since I felt overmedicated and wanted to see how I'd do on my own now that some of my mental triggers have been controlled.

I think antidepressants can help, but you definitely have to find the right one or else they can mess you up bad. I liked how I felt - I didn't feel happier per se, the biggest difference was when I noticed that I could hold my head up and actually look at people while simply walking down the halls. I'll probably go back on them eventually, but I don't want to be on them as heavily as before.

Disclaimer: I am also on ritalin for ADHD and that became an issue with dosing the SSRIs since basically they fight eachother at times. I choose ritalin over the SSRI's which is part of the reason I went off my meds. YMMV.
