I would take the fact Welbrutin worked as a positive.
To me this means there is a med or combo that will help
you greatly, you just need to find one that will not poop
out on you. This does happen to some people and the reasons
are not clearly understood. Effexor or Remeron (or both) would be my next choices.
Also 3 weeks was not enough time to really know if Paxil was doing any good, so another SSRI
would be a posibillity.Depression and ADD often go hand in hand, I have both. It is a pain; I am very good
at dealing with my ADD, but not when I am depressed. All the copeing skills go out the door.
My ADD was much less of a problem once the depression was taken care of.The problems you mentioned that Klonipin is treating could also be controled
with somethink like a beta-blocker. I take Inderal as needed and it has cut my
usage of Atavin in half.James
