Thanks morgan and proudfoot. That's just the information I need. Which SSRI is most blunting, and which one, if any can increase emotions? I can only tolerate 2.5 mg prozac before the blunting starts. 5 mg Lexapro was too much for me but maybe a lower dose would be needed for lexapro since it is so much more selective than prozac and since i only tolerate a low dose of prozac.
I would consider tianeptine but I can't afford it. Also its major side effect is causing nightmares, and I get them now. So I think that might indicate I need a little bit more serotonin not less.
I'm still up for input though. I wonder how luvox compares?
