Please,
I need a recommendation.
I believe the depression is atypical because I can enjoy myself when out of my regular routine. Just went on vacation and had a great time and many normal days.
Back in my normal routine depressed again. Even worse than before vacation.
I've previously tried Wellbutrin with some success. I felt somewhat better but I ended up getting fairly agressive tendencies (from the NE?). Doc kept wanting me to increase from 150's to 300's...Maybe that would have helped?
Just tried LDN which didn't help, seems anything that might boost my immune system makes me feel worse.
I've tried Prozac, Paxil, Effexor (SSRI's just don't work. The Prozac was the worst week of my life).
Tried imipramine..The 3rd day was terrific...after that worsening of symptoms.
Amitryptyline in low dose can help me sleep and does Flexeril.
I think I am suffering from some form of PTSD also.
Symptoms are mostly depression with some anxiety at times.
