Hi...I have been on several different anti-depressants since 2002. Effexor worked at first but then I discontinued when I felt like I had a grip on things. I then started taking it again when my mother was diagnosed with lung cancer and it didn't work so I switched to Lexapro. That didn't work. Then I tried Wellbutrin and nothing! I went on Cymbalta for a few months and that didn't do anything either. My doctor recently prescribed Paxil and Wellbutrin together but the nausea was too much.
Recently, I got my hands on some Adderall. I was completely out of my funk within the hour and accomplished so much for the entire day. I was calling my friends and family when they normally have to call me. I cleaned my house, got all my work done, and ran a couple of miles. I had no side effects either. Is Adderall a treatment for depression or is it possible I have ADD since no other medication worked like this?
