I was up all night going through the med history that I have logged. I think that higher doses of an SSRI/SNRI is more negative that good & may make my mood changes worse (I think). But I need a little (like 50mg zoloft) to help w/bloating, water retention, digestion, etc. And they do lower my appetite & weight.

The SSRI/SSRNIs & Wellbutrin are pretty benign when I take them. The other meds I have tried have definite negative effects. Although I am on Lamictal, and I don't know if it is helping.

BUT - that still doesn't help w/ figuring out how to help my depression, motivation, & finding anything enjoyable. As well as the dips where I feel even worse. Stimulants sometimes can help with the motivation. But, these aren't the best for cycling. I am really doubtful at this point that anything will help (unless a new magical drug helps)

I use to have a huge problem with agitation. That is one thing that has actually improved with meds, a daily dose of xanax. It really isn't a problem anymore.

I have tried Emsam, not so good.
