Post-Ops: I'm currently taking an anti-depressant called

Serzone. I take 150mg in the morning and 150mg at night. With all of the "challenges" that are going on in my life right now, I'm wondering if I should speak with my PCP about either changing the medication or simply increasing the dosage. I feel as though the concerns I'm having are related moreso to ALL of the things that are going on in my life right now...Some have to do with the WLS, and others are related, but not directly. I believe I am doing quite well with the lifestyle changes, but being on a plateau for as long as I have, having apprehensions about buying a new wardrobe, being in the midst of unfair labor practice case on my government job, having a supportive husband that understands everything EXCEPT for the emotional/mental changes I'm going through (I'm finding that we have "intense discussions", about things and he oftentimes gets upset over seemingly trivial things-(at least they are to me). I'm ready to change careers, tired of doing the same old thing...day-after-day...sitting at a desk with an ear-to-ear, cheshire cat smile on my face, and I know good and well that I'm no longer interested in this job and haven't been in a long time. Should I see about getting my medication changed? No Zoloft! It makes me feel like I'm some type of mechanical robot. I've never used Paxil or Wellbutrin and not even sure how any of the others work. Sometimes, I get mildly irritated, and other times, I'm depressed and crying. Then, yet other times, I'm just non-chalant and have the "oh, well, whatever" attitude. This is the type attitude I feel most comfortable with because it's more like me, I don't have to put on any specific attitudes or *fake feelings* to please anyone and yet I'm still pleasant. Have any of you experienced any of these feelings? Have you ever taken any of these medications? How do they work for you? I REALLY appreciate ALL of your input on these. Luv to you!!
