Noa, I was on Serzone for over four wks, with no response at all except much, much, worse fatigue *and* depression.
My Pdoc added the Adderall because I had been on Wellbutrin for eight weeks, and never had any stimulant effect at all. Actually, I was the one who asked for a stimulant, because my depression always gets worse when I get too overwhelmed with daily responsibilities and am too tired to get anything done(always!). What with the holidays and my father-in-law's visit, I knew that if I did not find some energy somewhere(even in a pill), by next week I would have been in a verrry bad place. The place where I never get out of bed, and when I'm not sleeping, I am composing suicide notes!
The main agenda with the Adderall is to see if it will give the Wellbutrin a kick in the pants so it will start working. My Pdoc just does not want to give up on the Wellbutrin until I have been on at least 12 wks. Which is fine with me as long as I have enough energy to "deal" in the meantime. Thanx for all the feedback!CarolAnn
