I havent been taking any medications for a long time, I recently got some adrafinil, I was going to try taking up to 4 pills a day, or 1200mg per day total, I read the drug can cause liver damage, so I am not sure if adrafinil is a good idea or not. I was taking prozac for about 1 year before I quit, the prozac didnt help much with depression, but it helped to make me more relaxed. I am thinking about trying medication again and I am trying to decide what drug I want to try, or something I might ask a doctor to prescribe for me if I ever go see a doctor again. I wouldnt want to go back on prozac again because it didnt help enough, I am not sure if I should try other ssri's because the results might be the same as prozac. Is it possible for one ssri to not work and another ssri to work great in the same person? So my questions are, can I take high doses of adrafinil for a very very long time without my liver being damaged? And should I even bother trying other ssri's if prozac didnt help? And also I was thinking about maybe trying wellbutrin, if anybody has good things to say about wellbutrin or bad things. Is wellbutrin a dopamine reuptake inhibitor, I am not sure, I need something energizing, but something that will also not make my anxiety worse, and of coarse something that will lift my spirits. So if anybody wants to say anything all comments or suggestions welcome.
