All of the treatments I tried had limited success as far a depression goes. I started using Brintellix about a month ago and it has been, by far, the best treatment I've ever used for depression. Side effects were minimal at worst (Definitely not as bad as some of the other AD I've tried over the years). I've never written a review for medication before but this drug has worked so well for me that I wanted to share my experience with other people that may be in a similar situation.

I have tried almost every other antidepressant available, and none has seemed to work as quickly and effectively as this one!
