You're braver than I. I *think* I'd be quicker at recognizing depression for what it was and going back on meds if I needed 'em again, but since it's my brain being messed with, I'm not sure, and I'm scared of how much time I might loose (or relationships I might ruin) if I slipped. I've seen my mom go off and on meds over the years, and it always takes her a year or more of misery before she realizes it's not normal and gets a new prescription. I know I'm not my mother, but...

I content myself with remembering that my zoloft dosage is really very low, and I've never had real ill effects (though if I was having them, I might not notice, since I've been on it nonstop for so long).

Good luck!
