Answers:
Seroxat comes from the same group of tablets as Prozac; they are both SSRIs!. However, they are different in some respects and I understand Prozac stays in the blood stream much longer than Seroxat!.

I know that Seroxat has had some really bad publicity but I've been on it several times and not had any problems at all!. The problem is that people seem to think that anti-depressants are some kind of magic pill that cures all, and I felt suicidal whilst on an anti-depressant just because I had an extremely low patch that I couldn't seem to pull myself out of!. I'm sure loads of other people have felt suicidal whilst on various different anti-depressants!. The problem arises because anti-depressants list side effects which are the same as having depression ie anxiety, suicidal thoughts etc, and this is why people think it is the tablet, but they more than likely would have been in the same situation with a different tablet or with being on no anti-depressant!.

I'm now on Venlafaxine (Effexor) and I've noticed that if I forget to take this tablet for a couple of nights I become a bit twitchy and this was something I never experienced with Seroxat!.

However, if you are not happy about being on Prozac go back to your doctor and insist you are put on a different type of anti-depressant!. As there are numerous anti-depressants available this shouldn;t be a problem!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

That is a light weight pill that doesn't really do much!. I think this is all in your head!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
