Jane,
Maybe the Norepinephrine kick is not for you. I've had to add Klonopin 1mg to my mix with the Celexa and the Wellbutrin. I guess I need more dopamine. Now I get more seratonin, norepinephrine, and dopamine. I'm not sure that that helps at all for you.
If you are feeling suicidal call your doctor immediately. Don't mess with it. There are ways your doctor can help you. The thing is you have to be willing to pick up the phone even if it seems like it is a million miles away and it weighs 3 tons.
Take Care,
Simcha
