Depression, no meds *keep* working for me

Posted by Harlock on June 21, 2004, at 12:13:51

Howdy. I had some questions for y'all.

I'm diagnosed bipolar, but I mainly suffer from depression. I don't cry or get suicidal (although I think about it), I get apathetic towards everything, and can't find enjoyment in anything.

I'm currently on:
Wellbutrin XL (450mg a day), Adderall XL (20 mg/day), and Symbyax, 6/50mg a day.

A few weeks ago, when I started Symbyax, I was litterally euphoric, off and on, for about 2 weeks. It was the best I've felt in years. Unfortunately, it was shortlived.

All 3 meds, and I still feel like garbage. I don't want to do anything, even things I used to enjoy. I barely get into work every day, and when I am here, I'm useless (software engineer).

I've tried Lexapro, prozac, effexor, and depakote in the past, but these didn't do it for me.

Is there anyone getting relief from any other drugs that may have come out recently (or any other drug for that matter), but specifically have not had the greatest results from the meds above?

Thanks in advance.
