Samantha,
To get back to plain Eonglish for a minute. I didn't respond to the SSRI's at all. I then switched to a TCA and got some benefit from that. After a while and reading people's opinions here I asked my pdoc about trying Wellbutrin because it was supposed to have a stimulating effect. After a couple of months of using it with my TCA I have recently tried it alone. So far things have gone very well. At one point I was taking 6 meds and now I am down to 3.
In short, Wellbutrin has worked well for me. I take 300 mg/day of the SR version. I am definitely not ready to give up on it anytime soon.
I think almost anything is worth a try if you react to it but Wellbutrin has done good things for me.
Chris
