Hattree,

Hi!-never replied to any of your posts before. So far there has only been two meds that caused nearly complete remission of SAD sx--Wellbutrin and Adderall (an atypical AD and a pstim). SSRI's seem to make me apathetic and melancholic (and considerably worsened EMAs-early morning awakenings-followed by oversleeping/napping later) during these times. Prozac was *somewhat* of an exception, however. TCA's have never been very effective for me for SAD (even at high doses). For me, SAD depressions are very much like narcolepsy! Very, very, fatigued, hungry, can't seem to get enough uninterrupted sleep. Very, very UNFOCUSED, make a lot of mistakes at work, etc. It seems the stuff that works the best are more stimulant like meds.
