In reply to What stimulant + effexor?, posted by Andre Allard on June 19, 2000, at 13:33:23
I am not bipolar. What I meant by my depression cycling is that while my mood stays depressed, I cycle between being lethargic too being an insomniac. So you could say that my depression cycles from atypical to normal depression.
I have been on effexor for six months previously and it worked like no other. This time around though I can sometimes sleep for twenty-four hours straight. I have tried wellbutrin to "pep" me up with little effect. I am not going off of the effexor. Therefore, the solution would be to add something to "pep" me up. This is why I am looking into adding a dopamine and or norepinephrine antagonist.
