Yes it did and I have a great primary care physician.
From my freshman year of college in to early adulthood I cycled in and out of what I now know was depression.
I can still remember reading an issue of Time magazine with Prozac filling the entire cover. On my train ride back to Milwaukee after doing business in Chicago I finally had a name for what I had been suffering from all those years.
I called my PCP the next day and set up an appointment to meet with her. The first words out of my mouth were about the article and Prozac. I said the article was talking about me. Long story short she prescribed Prozac and it was not a good fit. Then she tried Zoloft and I had found the SSRI that was best for me.
Over the years I tried other SSRI’s always hoping they would reduce my sexual side effects. Some had terrible side effects for me and I always ended up back with Zoloft. Today I am taking 50mg of Zoloft along with Wellbutrin and Buspar. That combined with Klonopin and adding 5mg of daily Cialis has been my sweet spot for many years.
My point is everyone has to find their sweet spot.
It enabled me to have a very successful commission sales career and raise two special children. Ironically one inherited my depression and the other developed severe anxiety. Because I was always open about my struggles they both found their sweet spot. My daughter is a very successful salesperson and my son after getting his law degree is now a diplomat stationed overseas.
They have given me three precious granddaughters and two precious grandsons.
I hope you all find your sweet spot.
