If you must take an antidepressant, Trintellix (vortioxetine) 10 mg/day is worth a look at. It does a lot of things in addition to serotonin reuptake inhibition. It is a sort of serotonin modulator - although it may do things yet to be discovered. Trintellix is a pretty clean drug. Apathy, brain fog, weight-gain, and amotivation are not as problematic as is with SSRIs. The drug is pro-cognitive. It clears up thinking rather than blunting it. The clinical trials produced impressive statistics.
