Hi ~ this happened to me alot, even tho I was on medication for depression. My former doctor would change my medication to see if something else worked better.

I'm seeing a different doctor now, and the last time I "fell" into one of those dark pits, I talked with him and instead of changing my meds, he ADDED Abilify -- and that has made all the difference in the world. I now take Abilify along with my antidepressant. I no longer have the periods of despair that I had --- I feel "normal" (whatever that is). I don't feel numb -- I'm able to actually FEEL emotions. Thank God they don't make me feel like a robot. LOL

Perhaps the Abilify could help you too. It's been a God-send for me. Best of luck and I hope you find something that helps. Take care. Hugs, Lee
