I wish u luck,and unluck usualy,i hope im wrong here,but my reason above, is amtrip,and i dont know where the other poster got the idea it was the bes of that time,doesent hold much history as as antidepressant as it does for sleep.
I think we all should just move on fromm ssris if we have not benifited from them personaly,how many will each of us try before we say STOP with the damn ssris.
ssNRIS are not potent ne uptake,but it is stilll there making it a little more stronger.PLus pristiq seems to be holding a good person comment record.
Adding a stimulant was a great idea,however adderall is usualy the stimulant that is known to have the most actual mood elevation at low doses.
Ive used both and i agree to that statement,but thats me.
Last,i dont see one more med being added as bad,it would deprend on knowing u more,but a much lower power med would be a good last touch,such as perhaps low dose mirapex,low dose lyrcia or the like.
But if u prove me wrong ill be very very happy,i wish u nothing but luck my friend.
