Hey Meri
Its good to hear from you, although I'm sorry about the circumstances
I think I owed you a babblemail, at least I meant to contact you but didn't get around to it....
Talk about lack of motivation!I'm wondering how you reacted to Wellbutrin?
I though it was working quite well, and it was the allergic reaction that made you stop taking it.Have I got it right? Or did Wellbutrin make you jittery?
The fact that you respond well to Caffeine suggests that a stimulant or at least stimulating med is what you need.
Here is a list of things that might be worth trying.
I haven't included any traditional stimulants in this list1) Adrafanil or Provigil
2) Sellegiline-Deprenyl
3) Aricept
4) Parnate
Parnate is the most stimulating of the MAOIs, it actually has an Amphetamine like structure, it might help with motivation and depression.
I personally did not react well to Amisulpride, it just made me sleeping, can't see how it would help with motivation, but were all different!
