> i do hope that you are not .... if you suffer from adhedonia , what medications are working for you ???? ssris for me are just terrible and the augmentation with the wellbutrin just made me a wide awake bored joyless person .. i'd rather sleep !!! thanks , lauraHi there Laura. NO, Im not making fun, I just have an unusual writing style.
Its seems we are nearly identical about the SSRIs.I went to Albertsons after my first dose of 5 mgs of LEXapro a few weeks ago.
I could barely walk thru the store, I had ataxia. It really sucked, Im a weightlifting and IM being killed by 5 mgs of Lexapro LOL,
And everyones faces looked distorted etcetc
All this on one dose...
Right now, Laura Im taking Nortriptyline and Abilify 15mgs.........
Im alot better on the abilify, the NOrtriptyline is worsening my depression so far. Ill give it more time
what are you currently stuggling with. I just want a recovery by April,,,, This is such a merry go Round.. GOOD Luck with you recovery!
