Hi everyone. I have treatment resistant depression. I was first medicated at 13 (I suspect I was a normal moody teen) and I’m 43. Thirty years and 18 medications. 2 hospital stays. CBT, DBT, EMDR. Talk therapy twice a month. Ketamine therapy. Last week I met with my psych and told him I’ve lost all hope.
He suggested Auvelity. Now, Wellbutrin on its own was unpleasant for me but he said it’s different how they work together.
So, today is my 3rd day. I’ve had some nausea and insomnia. I will very tentatively say that I feel my mood is significantly better. I’m cautiously optimistic.
I will keep you posted on my experience.
