I want to give you an advice.
How does it work in germany, do you get medicines for free as in sweden, and is it the same praxis in the whole country, like is it the same indications for schizophrenia all around the country?
As an example.Because in sweden, 75mg wellbutrin isn't doable as the law says you have to at least give 150, but the recommendation is 300mg in the morning.
I think it is a good antidepressant but very adrenergic and you might be a little cautious as it can cause panic attacks in those who suffer from hyperarousal..Have you tried a high dose of amitriptyline?
I can't tolerate most of the antidepressants but in my deepest depression it is the only thing that have worked for me.
I was prescribed 300mg per day a/ 75+75+75+75 and it was a life saver.yeah, it has some nasty anticholinergic side effects, but if the depression is very crippling, maybe it can be worth it.
Under 300mg did not work for me.just a tip as i don't want you to suffer.

I take 400mgs Wellbutrin SR (the generic, 2x daily version). Its been good to me.
I still think you should consider an anticonvulsant w/ an antidepressant. Maybe that would help lower the neuroleptic dosage.

I'm sorry you're feeling that way. When do you see pdoc? Maybe your dosages need tweaking.

You should try the wellbutrin. It might even help you with weight and low feeling from zyprexa. It will give you energy, also AD effect.

you may want to ask about getting your wellbutrin increased to 300mg daily, that's the standard dose they usally use in the US, and maybe adding a SSRI like Prozac, or Lexapro, that way both your dopamine and serotonin levels would be fixed
I take prozac 80mg, it has a warm feeling in the morning, and i do notice im not depressed during the day, but still i will have my bad days on prozac, it just stops me from sinking into darkness......serotonin levels are at nomral with prozac for me......i used to take wellbutrin with prozac but i didnt do so well with wellbutrin, it did help but it made me on edge, same thing with Strattera, they both made me irrtible and prone to snap, but for others wellbutrin is a miracle, it's like a cup of coffee in the mornings, it wakes you up and feel in sync without feeling sluggish

How about Neurontin?

I have tried neurontin two times for two different things, this is my opinion on it.
The first time i had it as an anxiolytic, specific for morning anxiety.
Then my regiment was 1200mg one hour before i got up from bed, like 7 AM, then back to sleep and one hour later i got up and feeling pretty well.The second time (which was just before the methadone now) i had it as an alternative mood stabilizer and took the same amount but three times a day.
The first time it was absolutely amazing because for me it just works if your blood levels don't get to build up so the small "euphoric" side effect always is present.
So yeah, it is to consider i think.
But really, if you can get pregabalin instead you're going to be SO much more well off.

I really need to do something you know? either Ketamine+High dose AP, or Nardil + high dose ketamine,
Neurontin or Wellbutrin.
Maybe i should go to a clinic.
