Depression and intollerance to SSRI drugs?!
Question: Depression and intollerance to SSRI drugs!?
Hi!. I have depression that has been worsening a bit lately!. I have tried SSRI and an SNRI, and I get serotonin shock, so those are a no go!. I currently only take Wellbutrin!.
My doctor would like to talk about adding something else on, but I'm wondering what else is there!? Adderall was brought up and a few I don't remember!.
Is anyone treating depression without an SSRI or SNRI!? What is the med, and how is it working!?
ThanksWww@Answer-Health@Com

Answers:
Besides the SSRI's and SNRI's there are the atypicals which Wellbutrin is one of them, and there are also the tricyclics like elavil!. How about a mood stabilizer like lamictal!? Adderall is a stimulant used for attention issues!. Many people with mood swings take lamictal and many that have attention issues too!. Also there are the MAOI's but these aren't used much anymore and have many contraindications!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
