Dave255 - I'm taking Abilify which acts on dopamine. I'm also taking Lexapro, which is an SSRI, and Wellbutrin which is an SNRI. I think I have my bases pretty well covered!

sugarhorse - I'm feeling a bit better today, and I've come up with a few possible reasons for the recent slump:
  1. I missed my abilify for about three days last week (d/c'd it on my own, got yelled at by pdoc, and started taking it again)
  2. I might have been PMS/PMDDing
  3. A week of doing night shifts for school/work screwed with my head
  4. It just happened.
  5. All of the above
  6. None of the above
  7. Who knows?
I'm not 100% back... not even close... but I'm no longer pondering ways in which I might kill myself, so that's definitely an improvement. Now I'm just unmotivated, but I think I'll come out of that soon.

My psychiatrist also increased my wellbutrin when I saw him on Friday, so maybe that's kicking in. We'll see.

Thanks for your concern.
