Hi Brian,
I was on prozac for years, then when I told the doctor I was having more anxiety, she switched me to Lexipro. I was very happy with it, I felt it not only helped with my depression, it helped with the anxiety.
I had to take it in the morning or else it was keeping me awake, but other than that I liked it very much.
Then we lost prescription benefits, and I had to switch back to prozac because Walmart had it on their $4 generic plan.
I am not as happy with the Prozac as I was with the Lexipro, But it works well on my depression.
I dont think either helped with the pain per se, but I am able to deal with it better, I dont cry as much and I find it easier to get up and out of the house even when I am hurting, which helps take my mind off it, and also keeps me in better shape physically.
HTH,
Fabby
