My response is that your biology is unique, and that it would be an undesirable outcome that you should skip trying a novel drug that would work for you based upon the well-intentioned but unsupported theorizing by contributors to Psycho-Babble.Viibryd seems to be working for me without weight-gain, sexual impairments, or anticholinergic side effects. Be prepared for some startup nausea and anxiety. These effects can dissipate within a week or two. Use the starter pack to titrate the dosage gradually.
