> I currently take 300mg Venlafaxine and 1OO MG amisulpride for OCD. I feel exceptionally tired and it's a struggle to maintain normal functioning like working or even washing because of the excess fatigue. My personal hygiene has gone very bad.I find if I don't take the amisulpride I am not fatigued but I am depressed and not mentally well. Things like concentration, memory and even tasting food can be problematic off the amisulpride. Something about the combination makes me mentally well but physically shatters me. What should I do ?

What happens when you reduce the dosage of Effexor?

You might consider switching from amisulpride to Abilify (aripiprazole). It works well for depression and can be activating. Another possibility is to try adding Wellbutrin (bupropion) or a stimulant. I think you need to figure out which drug is causing the fatigue before proceeding.
