I wonder if this is because of the dopamine blocking... Had you ever tried MAOIs like nardil or parnate, which block dopamine uptake too?
Glad it's working for you!
--Jim> I guess that many pdocs recently have been rediscovering the TCA amoxapine. It has interesting serotonin and dopamine blocking effects (the latter to an extent to where one can get EPS and even TD on the medicine). I've just added 50mg of it to my 20mg Celexa, and I noticed an *immediate* improvement in my depression. I've taken lots of psychotropics, and except for benzos I've not encountered one that worked so quickly for me.
