Hello Ritch,
One of the reasons I was sold on SSRIs was that after many years of off and on tricyclics medications and sedative hyponotics, I was starting to have Parkinsonian-like dyskenic events.
Mostly eye twitching/blinking and unconcisous foottaping that exacerbated when I was tired or very anxious.Try to consciously try to control these just made them worse.
With SSRIs almost none of these have occured in me. I do not take anyother psycoactive meds.
For most people I have talked to that have had neg. side effects from SSRIs, these were related to taking the med on empty stomach(nausea) or increased blood pressure( dehydration) or dystonia( interactive with other prescribed medications).
Also be ware that most any allergy med or cold med can had interaction issues with SSRIs too...
