> Right now I'm taking lamictal but I'm not sure it can help with my primary symptoms which are listed in my signature. My new pdoc thinks I have mood stability issues. I wanna try a noradrenergic drug since I noticed some benefit with pristiq and low dose prozac but not very robust. Any ideas? My pdoc is worried about hypomania or mania with TCAs but honestly thats what I need right now not a drug that quells feelings. I haven't been able to feel extremely deep sadness or anxiety. I can get upset but I somehow am detached from it. I would welcome something that makes me feel more.

When there is depression and bi-polar my p-doc addresses the depression first than adds on a mood stabilizer. I like clomipramine as it is strong on both ne and se. Maybe more at se but it is a strong drug that will let you feel.For strong drugs that let you feel both there's nardil, parnate, clomipramine and immipramine..other than these you can mix nortriptyline with zoloft or another ssri...Than the mood stabilizer is added on.
