From my experience and from reading, Wellbutrin on it's own is pretty mild. I have used it and seen it used as an add-on, at least on this board.
Is it giving you an energy lift? I agree that your dosage is
low.I'm curious about the level of satisfaction you feel with this psychiatrist. There must be (I believe there are) other options to help you with this debilitating symptom.
I know I sound like a broken record :( sorry. But has anyone mentioned the maoi class, like parnate for energy? You can add your stabilizer to that (I believe--don't take my word for it).
I don't know why your doc is seeming so hesitant to treat (just my impression). Do you, possibly, underrepresent your distress to her (it is a her?)? I ask because I really used to do that, and it really worked to my detriment.
So maybe AP's are out. It could be. Seems that way in my own case. But you haven't exhausted your options.
If I'm way off here, please let me know, okay?
