Have you tried combining Strattera (high-dose) with Provigil (high-dose) along with some Adderall or Desoxyn? My sleep doc swears by this combo-- he says the combo of Strattera and Provigil lets him take his patients off of amphetamines entirely, or drastically reduce their dose.
Also, keep switching, maximizing your dose of antidepressants, forever, until one helps you. Cymbalta is brand new- just came on the market. It gives a lot of people energy, so I would think it might help you if you took it along with some Strattera, Provigil and Adderall or Desoxyn.
