Hi,
I sort of understand, having MDD and SP. I found that dextroamphetamine to augment an SSRI only helped for about a month. I agree with you that there is dopaminergic dysfunction in depression. Next month I'm seeing a new psych and will ask about (dex)methylphenidate (Focalin XR and Concerta) in the hope that they will provide more long-lasting benefits.
Can anyone else comment on whether this strategy might work?
