there are new ones but generally very much like the others.It's trial and error and we are the test subjects .I even did a paid trial blind test for a new one last year ( the pay works out to be nothing once you figure getting to the office etc.....

Its surprising how little the prescribers of these drugs know about them I am not anti meds but after almost 30 years of trial and error
I wish I had found a shrink to talk to.

crying works for me and I am a 65 year old grandfather .
