Thank you for the info, everyone. This site has always been such a wealth of good advice & information.
It's especially gratifying to know that one doesn't always have to stay tied to The Meds forever. Living in Los Angeles, one always hears people brag about their favourite anti-depressant, the number of years that they've taken it, and even occasionally the dosage!
It's always good to get a reality check from the real world.
