> Why exactly would I consider more drugs. Before going on drugs I was just a little depressed. Now I am completely numb to everything and cognitively screwed up, sexually impotent, this is during and now post medication. I went on this sh*t because I was just a little down. I was on the ssri's prozac, paxil and lexapro and I just never felt the same afterwards. I'm thinking of trying something like wellbutrin to get out of this hell, but I am hesitant to rely on any of this, since this poison is what got me into this mess in the first place


For me, I'm glad I stuck it out over the years long enough to find a good combination of several meds that leave me mostly good/undepressed for the past several months. The star of my combo is desipramine. SSRIs just don't cut it for me, either. You could start with Wellbutrin, and if it is a little helpful, but not enough, you could ask the doctor to add to it, such as thyroid (example: Cytomel) or desipramine or others. The ones I listed are quite different from SSRIs.
