It sounds like you are at the other end of it, where it is pushing up something that is indeed dragging you down.

I dont think "they" pay enough attention to how psych meds make people feel. Like, too much prozac makes my head chilly! Drs have been like, thats not a thing. Dude, yes it is - i just said so!
i took prozac for a couple of years a long time ago when I first started struggling with depression. it worked for that amount of time, but was like, it just suddenly stopped working one day. it was weird. that is when i went on zoloft for another little while, til I quit that one cuz I didn't like how it started dulling my feelings. i need my feelings they're who I am

the wellbutrin doesn't seem to do that. instead it's dulling what I want dulled. Or something like that. I totally feel like I'm back to my old self from before any of this depression crap started. i hope it continues.
