> I'm glad you're moving toward improvement. I have been on pleasureless vacations before. Anyways, I've been having good luck with Daytrana, a transdermal methylphenidate. Gentler and lasts all day. I have cfs/fibro something, so fatigue is related to my depression. I'm doing ok right now...responding to Lexapro. I recall you were on that a while. Wish you well...Beckett x
Hi Beckett,
I was on Lexapro for several years and was effective, but it stopped working. I tried Concerta, but it didn't help with my fatigue. Wonder if Daytrana would work differently. For now, I'm sticking with Vyvanse for the time being despite it not lasting all day. At least, it gives me four hours to get through the day. I'm giving my cocktail (Effexor, Abilify, Wellbutrin, Vyvanse) time since I've only been on Effexor for about four weeks.I hate to be so overmedicated. It just complicates things more. I never know what med is causing what. I just came from my doctor and my cholesterol is a whooping 365 (total) and my sugar levels are in pre-diabetes range. I barely eat and don't lose weight. And to add to the mix, I've fainted about four times in the last year. I think it's the Abilify but not sure. I have an appt with a neurologist to rule some things out.
I was also diagnosed with Fibromyalgia so the fatigue may be explained by that. However, I know many people with Fibro who do not have as much of a problem with fatigue as I do (even my 86 years old mother in law can run circles around me). This all began three years ago, aside from depression, I used to be healthy and slimmer. Since starting med cocktails, all has changed.Glad you are doing well,
