[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 14852, member: 1514"] Effexor is another antidepressant but it is a combo SSRI/SNRI. It may work but it may do the same thing to him. If he is having this type of reaction to the antidepressants then it may be that he simply cannot take them. I think I read a study recently that said if someone tried either 2 or 3 antidepressants with a bad reaction to them then it was more than likely that they were bipolar. (Least that is what I think I remember the study saying...lol) Maybe your husband should try lamictal. It is a mood stabilizer with antidepressant features. It tends to work much better on the bipolar depression and not much at all on mania. Your husband could have one of the milder forms of bipolar such as cyclothemia or dysthemia. Remember this is just my opinion...not a doctor...just a patient...lmao. [/QUOTE]
