    I was diagnosed with anxiety/depression disorder back in 97. Over the years I was put on Paxil, Wellbutrin, Effexor, and one that starts with a C that I can't remember. None of them helped. Some made the depression worse, others made me feel like I was under a constant strobe light, one caused weight gain and ruined sexual desire, and some just made me down right nauseous. In October I quit smoking and started gaining weight. I went to the pharmacy to find something to help lose weight. I decided on "Relacore". I have lost only about 5 lbs. since I started taking it, but I lost ALL my depression. See if it works for you. Good Luck! :) ++
