The problem I get on stimulants is the mood rollercoaster ride. Wellbutrin does the same thing. It doesnt last through the day and by the morning its gone and I cant get out of bed.
I took desipramine (an NRI) for awhile and that helped a bit. Not so sure it helped as much for depression.
SSRIs are the first line for OCD and depression treatment. celexa, zoloft and prozac. TCAs are used a lot too. fluvoxamine and clomipramine.
Just be careful when taking these drugs.. you may get a strong response to them, like a dysphoric hypomania. Best to start slow. I had no issues with celexa but my first trial of zoloft made me angry as hell all the time.
