Hi
I was hoping we could all share our favourite antidepressant mood boosters that aren't SSRI, SNRI, TCA, MAOI or Benzo related mood boosting / cognitive enhancing psychoactive.My favourites =
Baklofen - it's a GABA-B agonist very similar to Gabapentin but cheaper, my shrink prescribes it for anxiety and alcohol cravings but I find at high doses it it helps a lot with dysthymic depression and social anxiety. Tolerance is a big problem though.
Hmm I can't really think of any others right now I can strongly vouch for.
I would love to hear what others have tried. Especially things like Nootropics / Racetams, 5ht, L-dopa, Meantime, Lithium with SSRI. Anything you like.
