> I'd be interested to hear it. What is your diagnosis and what meds have you responded well to?

I'm not sure what you want to know. Here's a capsule:

DX: Major Depressive Disorder, recurrent; Anorexia Nervosa, restricting type, recurrent; Anxiety Disorder, Not Otherwise Specified. Possibly ADHD, too, but that's arguable... (Personally, I think that if I meet the criteria for ADHD, the criteria needs to be made stricter.)

Meds tried:

Nortriptyline; Paxil; Prozac; Lexapro; Zoloft; desipramine; Wellbutrin; Lamictal; Cymbalta; Effexor; Strattera; Remeron; Adderall; Dexedrine; Provigil; Serzone; Ritalin/Concerta. I think that's it. Nortriptyline and Paxil were pretty effective; Effexor and Prozac were, too, for about a year; Wellbutrin is helpful, but not enough; Remeron was a nightmare; Serzone ditto; Adderall increased depression; Ritalin increased appetite.

I'm not sure what you're asking for, but that's a capsule of dx and meds.

And Jan? I saw this, and didn't have time right then to do anything about it. Sometimes it takes me a while to decide if I want to answer questions like this one. Give me a chance to make that decision and decide what -- if anything -- to say, OK?
