Quote: do think it's interesting that the ADs are having such a fast impact. Scientifically, of course it's not possible-- since it takes a couple weeks for them to "kick in".
Actually, this isn't true. While it IS true that they MAY take up to two weeks to start taking effect, and we advise patients of that so they will be patient - I have had many, many patients who clearly started to respond within the first three days to the SSRIs. That is one of their advantages over the older drugs - their rapid onset .
