> Have you tried taking memantine or acamprosate with the stimulants? Apparently this augmentation strategy works better with amphetamines than with reuptake inhibitors (eg. methylphenidate). I don't know about modafinil, which is a reuptake inhibitor, but has other effects as well.

> -undopaminergicooh, no, I haven't. I've not heard of those two. TBH every single non-psychotropic/non-prescribed substance that're supposed to be good for depression that I've tried have failed miserably. I've tried all the big/popular ones I know of.
That said, I have no other options and if they're inexpensive, I'll duly give them a whirl.
