Hi!
Falconman and sl, thanks a lot for the encouragement! Helped a lot! As for you question on whether I've tried talk therapy, the answer is yes, many times! Actually, I've been seeing my present therapist (who's a psychologist, so she's not allowed to prescribe medicines) for 3 years now, and it does help a lot when it comes to putting my life into perspective, or to link the loose ends together, if you know what I mean. She encouraged me a lot when I first thought about trying drug therapy and now she's encouraging me to stick to the first doctor (even though I've already decided to see another one). Now I'm trying to handle this relapse I'm going through the best way I can (I'll be back to work on Monday, which might help). I do hope the new doctor (differently from the first one) is someone who knows his job well enough to come up with the best suggestion to help me. As sl suggested, I'll welcome an increase in the Wellbutrin dosage, if that's what he thinks is best for me. Fortunately, seeing my therapist yesterday helped me understand the fact that I spent a lot of money on a trip that I couldn't enjoy as much as I expected in a different (and more positive) way.
Thanks a bunch!
Ricardo
