> As for the apathy...I read one study where they used atypical antipsychotics. I think thats a bad idea, given the side effects and cost, but I guess its an option. BuSpar might help, too.
I'm on 300mg Seroquel for insomnia and it makes me so apathetic it's horrible. Not to mention that it makes me seriously depressed - but it's the only thing that puts me to sleep right now.Jerry
I'd ban antipsychotics for depression treatment if I could!!
