Thanks for your posting. I found it very interesting. It's always amazing to me when doctors show they have no empathy for the pain and confusion these illnesses cause. While I'm bipolar and don't have ADD, memory is a huge problem for me. I worry that all this medication is destroying brain cells. I have more clarity when I'm hypomanic (this part of my illness has been difficult to control and we've tried everything) but it's still not great. I'm 52 and can't imagine what my memory will be like when I'm 60 or 70. On a different note, my latest theory (for me) is that the Wellbutrin is helping energize the Adderrall which is losing its potency. I've just begun Lexapro. I'd tried Celexa once before--without stimulants--and it didn't do anything to end a bad depression. Are you taking the Neurontin so that you can sleep?
