Last go round was with Lexapro, and I had an akathisia reaction from what I think was a dopamine shutdown that was really nasty. We added the Wellbutrin for help with the dopamine, and that did the trick. But, I quit the Lexapro and moved to Remeron due to gasto side effects. Last time I saw doctor I mentioned the dopamine situation. I thought maybe either Provigil, an ADD med like Adderall, or a dopamine drug like Mirapex, but I don't think she agrees with my experimental approach to drug therapy. So she suggests Lithium. She gave me a mood chart to see if I have bipolar. So far it's all on the down side. Are the MAOI's good for dopamine?
