In reply to Re: why not dopamine for depression?, posted by linkadge on November 9, 2004, at 8:28:52
I believe that I have become treatment resistant. I was diagnosed with Major Depression and Panic Disorder in 1987. I started with TCAs and then in the 90s started SSRIs. I have also tried the serotonin/norepinephine combos (Effexor, Cymbalta)....It sounds like I might benefit from an increase in Dopamine. What psychiatric drugs increase dopamine and can they be used in combination with SSRIs? I've also heard it helps with libido (and mine is lacking). Any info would be appreciated. Thanks.
