> I lived in the Philippines and used Sulpiride along with a psychostimulant type antidepressant, Amineptine, (a modified tricyclic) with great results. I have never responded well to SSRIs. My general symptoms are apathetic type depression with chronic fatigue symptoms. Plus some irritability, temper and manic type symptomology and behavior thrown in, but not in any recognizable cycle.

I am currently on Adderall (an ADD stimulant) and Buspar (wimpy anti anxiety med). I am almost ready to ditch the Buspar and try an AP along with the Adderall because the Sulpiride did work so well for me. But, I will hang in there and give the Buspar a full trial. There are no side effects - I'm just not sure it is doing anything.
