The obvious choice to me seems like wellbutrin. It's activating without being a true stim and is excellent for motivation, clarity in thought and adding interest without messing with your serotonin. The ssri's have been awful for me in the past, but as soon as I went on wellbutrin, I felt so much better. Cymbalta affected me just like ssri's (flatness, apathy, weight gain, sexual dysfunction), whereas wellbutrin kicked up my sex drive and diminished my appetite. It pooped out on me after a while as well, but I just took a short break from it and am slowly reintroducing it again and it seems to be helping again. Good luck!
