Thanks for the replies. I have been diagnosed as Bipolar II, and my main problem has always been depression. Hypomania was never really an issue for me for the most part.

My current cocktail is Wellbutrin 300 mg, Abilify 5 mg and Lamictal 100 mg.

I have been on Wellbutrin for 17 weeks, and only in the third week did i feel better. After that it was straight back into depression, Abilify was then added to treat my obsessive compulsive thoughts. And finally Lamictal, i worked my way up to 100 mg which put a dent in my depression. But now it's just anhedonia left, i just seem to lack emotions in general. No pleasure, sadness, empathy.

This emotional numbing happened after a panic attack i had back in August, when it was my fourth week on the Wellbutrin. Now i'm trying to recover, but the scary thing is i don't know when i will. Or if i will at all.
