Ok - since I am having terrible akathesia and a few rage incidents on Abilify I have quetions about my brain chemicals.
Wellbutrin also gave me energy and a few rages (like Abilify), but not the akathesia (shaky feeling inside) like Abilify. BUT, when I countered the Wellbutrin with Effexor, I felt like a nicer person.
I'm guessing that Wellbutrin & Effexor hit all 3 brain chemicals?
Cymbalta only hits neuephanephrine (sp?) ? Is that right? It doesn't effect Serotonin?
It's like I need to hit all 3 chemicals just slightly to get a good balance. Too much Dopamine manipulation and I get edgy and could fly into a rage. Too much neurephanephrine and I get depressed. Too much Serotonin and I get bladder problems.
I've tried taming Wellbutrin with Klonopin and it doesn't work. Kinda like taming Abilify with Xanax or Klonopin didn't work either.
I feel like I'm close to an answer, I just don't know.
Would Cymbalta and Wellbutrin be a good combo? Does Cymbalta effect serotonin at all?
