I've suffered from poop-out from all AD's. You're pretty much describing the signs...for me, I would just feel depression creeping back in, my motivation would start to decline and I would get weepy for no reason. Despite upping the dosages, they all have pooped out on me, usually within 6 months to a year and I've pretty much been on all the SSRI's, SNRI's and tried some TCA's. Right now we are trying MAOI's, hoping that I will get some longevity from them.
I don't know the scientific reason it happens, but it does. You should talk to your doctor and tell him how you are feeling and your concern that your med is pooping out. Going off and on meds is no fun...I hope you find one that lasts for you.
