@myacct123, it can be a long journey to find a medication that works for you. And there may come a time that a medication that was working, doesn't any longer. I merged your discussions about searching for a medication into one discussion here so that you can review the comments people have shared with you:

@myacct123, what medications have you and your doctor tried in the past? Has something worked and is no longer working?

I have been on many ssri over 40 years. Effexor has worked the best. But was still depressed. Nothing wrong in my life! If I added a couple beers after work I felt great relief. But stopped drinking and now I have no relief with the Effexor or anything so far. Weaning off wellbutrin now.. it made me crazy. Taking desvenlafaxine for 2 months. No help. I don't think there is anything to help me.
