Hey there!
Wow, you sound alot like me and my experiences with those exact same meds! Except I wasted a year of my life on celexa which turned me into a sleeping eating zombie. Prozac, same response as you as well as for wellbutrin. But anyway, glad to hear that BuSpar is working wellish. Thats one I haven't tried.Well, for me anyway, I have found some relief by taking St John's Wort. Its very gentle, so it won't aggitate you like prozac and wellbutrin did, and works similarly to a MAOI. I've been taking it, and have liked it alot. I doubt a GP would actually prescribe it through, unless you live in Germany, where it is very very popular. If taking this, then you need to get a good brand, something like Kira, as quality can become an issue.
Hmmm, but other than that, have you thought about Effexor? I was on it for half a year and it was okay. Maybe exggerates sleeping/eating (which you want to avoid!). But better than Celexa/Prozac/wellbutrin
Kind regards
Meri
