I'm so sorry thse two drugs are out for you. The reason I mentioned them is that they are the best combination I have ever been on. The doses are so low that I can't say they ever had a full antidepressant effect, but now that I have been going to a psychoanalyst for 15 months, my depression has really lifted- before it was very severe. I gained 50 lbs. taking various combinations of prozac, paxil and zyprexa- I'm just like you- it made me feel so terrible about myself that any real AD effect was nullified by huge amounts of self-hate, especially when i looked in the mirror or saw photos of myself.. However, on 5 mg Lexapro and 37.5 of Wellbutrin, I have lost 40 of those pounds, really without trying very hard. I really like to keep all these medications as low as I possibly can, so I don't really know what to suggest next. Do you have anything in mind which seems fairly reasonable?

My posting name sounds very strange, I know! It's the place-name of a favorite hiking destination in Switzerland.
