I've been both functionally better and actually better at different times.
Paxil or zoloft or remeron...functionally better but not well.
Lexapro...not functionally well or actually well.
Prozac...functionally better and closer to well, but still not there.
Prozac zyprexa combination...functionally much better and very close to actually well. Lasted almost 5 years.
Prozac zyprexa st johns wort combination...95% completely well. Awesome. The metabolic effects of sjw screwed up the other meds and I just couldn't retain the good effects. Lost it.
All kinds of add-ons like lamictal, depakote, pindolol, buspar, etc...not help at all, or very short lasting help.
Zyprexa mini-dose cymbalta xanax combo...functionally totally well and nearly actually well...but only did it for 4 days in an emergenecy, doubt it would have kept up.
When I read about the 32% to 44% of people in clinical trials that reached remission, I have to ask myself, where are they?
