Hi Kazoo, Anthony here;
I get the impression you don't consider stimulants viable AD's. The reason I'm asking is that I'm in the process of a Ritalin trial for depression/fatigue. You mentioned a "false sense of well being". Yet my pdoc says he has an older patient who failed all treatments including ECT, and he is doing wonderfully on ritalin. This patient was concerned that he would have to take this stimulant for the rest of his life. But aren't the standard ad's taken by many people indefinitely?
I am certainly not trying to attack your post Kazoo, in fact I really enjoy all your posts, but I got kinda bummed out thinking about possibly finding a drug that really might help me, only to have to give it up because it is really just a temporary high that wears off. Anyway, let me know if I'm getting the wrong impression from your post. Take care,Anthony
