I'm looking into different antidepressants and I just wanted to get some opinions from people who have been on the antidepressants I am looking into. I just want to know how well the medication worked to treat your depression/anxiety and what side effects you suffered from. I'd like to point out that I also have a sleeping disorder, so any medication or combination of medication that is taken at night and has a side effect of "knocking you out" I wouldnt be opposed to that and would actually prove beneficial to me, these are the medications that I am looking into :

Effexor
Remeron
Cymbalta
klonopin
ativan
Xanax

I've been on Zoloft and Paxil and niether of those work for me, I experienced HORRIBLE side effects on Zoloft and paxil may as well have been a placebo.


I just want to add that I do plan on talking to my doctor, but I enjoy making informed dessions and appericate hearing about personal experiences.

Thank you
