Ed - My love didn't appear to have claustrophobia, but he did suffer from depression - somtimes severe. He also didn't seem to enjoy life any more. There were other contributing factors, but most of it was caused by the depression. I'm glad you found a med that helped you quickly. Personally, I can't take Paxil, Prozac or Zoloft. Each of them had severe side effects. I finally settled on Welbutrin, and as you indicated, it took about 7 days to build up in my system, but it did save my life (literally). Best wishes to you.
