I just want to say that, of course,  any person taking an antidepressant
runs the risk of side effects, as they do with ANY drug; however, it is
the health care provider's responsibility to monitor for side effects and
it's equally the patient's responsibility to report any disturbing
symptoms, such as worsening depression, strange thoughts, suicidal
tendencies, etc. Do you really think a Dr. would just hand someone a
bottle of Prozac and never see them again? Most Drs. are thorough and
wouldn't leave a patient to just "see how it works out".

Am I being "naive"? .... what are other peoples' experiences?
