In reply to Zoloft makes me lazy, sometimes more depressed, posted by 1980monroe on January 30, 2004, at 17:06:25
> I have been diagnosed with major depression and ADHD. I was diagnosed about 3 months ago, and am currently taking zoloft. Im more a laid back person to start out with, i take adderall which gives me a motivation boost, Zoloft has made me defiently "more" laid back, like if i have to research crap for a class i just totally tell myself, forget about it till later, then that makes it worse. I think my problem is more dopamine, and motivation, not really serotoin, too much serotoin makes you fatique and lazy. I get soo apathic on it sometimes, i just cant even move. Does anyone have any thories?
Zoloft did that to me as well.
IMO, you are lucky to have a doctor prescibe Adderral for you. Mine wouldnt touch it or benzo's to help me sleep when I was on Wellbutrin.
Needless to say, I had to dump him :D
BTW, I agree with you about the dopamine theory. Wellbutrin is said to help some people with SSRI problems like this one.
