Hi Mike!
SOOO good to know you're OK. I haven't been here either, over the last 6 months (just a bit here & there), too busy with a new business...that I believe a little "prayer" from you encouraged!!!
I've been having some psych ups and downs though and a lot of "life" happenings (mostly to my immediate family members)...won't go into it here.
I really hope your family situation is settled too, now.
As to your weight issues from Prozac.....aaaagh! I can relate to that. Remeron was the evil culprit in that regard for me last year! I work out a lot and take some supplements to help metabolize fat ( no "excitatory" products like Ephedrine or Guarana tho'). I've found that the exercise/supplement combo speeds up my metabolism and my weight is now stable. You might want to try a similar approach to either augment the Wellbutrin experiment, or as a substitute if that fails and you need another AD.
As I recall, you used to exercise(?). Do you still?? If your condition(s) aren't lowering your energy and drive right now (and I've been THERE too!) try upping your physical output and incorporate some supplements that won't mess-up your poor hard-working liver!!!! I suggest CLA and chromium picolinate or chromium polynicotinate to start.
All my very best wishes, as always!
Jas
