Thats a tough one. I had the same experince with SSRI's. It seemed the dose needed to supress the anxiety sapped my energy.
You could try wellbutrin (which would help energy but might increase anxiety)
Make sure your folic acid levels are high. Folic acid supplemetns have been shown to enhance the effectivness of SSRI's. This might allow you to decrease your dose and still maintain a benefit.
1mg of folic acid should help if you are not taking any already.
Anyone have other suggestions ?
