As far as I know, no, not all of them cause diarrhea. As with everything else, how one person's body reacts to it is completely different from someone else's reaction. Like I've said before, the Lexapro that gave me D at first has given other people C. It's completely hard to predict, so I'm guessing your doctor picked one that had the least likelihood, historically, of causing problems.

I will say this, though - even though your system doesn't tolerate anything that causes D, sticking it out and dealing with the side effects (which are temporary and do go away!) is totally worth it with SSRI's.

Good luck!
