Can you tell us about your experience with Sertraline? I've been offered it in the UK but would prefer to try Trintellex as I'm really worried about the numbing/blunting I've experienced before with mirtazapine/lexapro

It's tricky to answer because I only did the lowest dose and took it alongside Vyvanse. I think it was more of an eye opening drug for me that stability was a lot better than the up down roller-coaster for Stims even if those in the short term helped. I then got off stimulants and took Lexapro for a year. So unfortunately I wasn't on it that long. But it was beneficial enough to pique my interest in exploring the SSRIs further.
