I think Wellbutrin helps with dopamine and norepinephrine. Might be wrong. I'm on it, and also on an SSRI for depression, ADD, and BPI.
Am tapering off the Strattera as it pooped out. But starting out on the Strattera(ADD), I was able to *start* Wellbutrin.
I was not able to tolerate Wellbutrin before without the strattera-an ADD drug. I am tapering Up on the Wellbutrin at the same time as decreasing the Strattera. Just started this. So far I feel good.
As far as *appetite*, I found Remeron made me too ravenous! I think Remeron, part SSRI(?), helps with serotonin,if you need it. And helps with something else I can't remember.
MY SSRI is Lexapro. With a smige,(7.5mgs) of Remeron and a pinch of a few other meds,Remeron helps me have a restful *sleep*. At that low dose it doesn't affect my appetite.
