I indicated I can stop any time and start when needed, you then compared wellbutrin to ssri's which was 100% false and then made the claim I was merely experiencing a placebo effect. Also false.
Despite your obvious more experience in all this I correctly identified how wellbutrin works despite my lack of experience  |
Wellbutrin also has the potential for abuse...
If you've "tried everything" and you think you know more than the doctors and you already know exactly what you want, just get a dealer or shell out for an online pharmacy.
I agree with whoever said show up with a list of all the stuff you've tried before, what you are on now, etc.
Be honest. You'll have to when you crash and burn anyway.
I don't see what you hope to gain from further game playing other than the obvious...scoring the pills you want through manipulation.
But yeah, it sucks to have to be on meds that make you a zombie and go through trying different combos until you find some that work and don't. And sometimes you have to try a few docs until you get a good one that hears you, too. And having to work and take care of a family through all that bites the big one. No doubt, you are in a hard place. I'm sorry. I hope it gets better for you.
This chemical balancing act that you are trying to manage though, is going to FAIL. I don't care if you have Nobel prizes in medicine and chemistry wrapped in an Rx pad.
