> Hi John, thanks for the advice about TCAs and SSRIs. Unfortunately I can't take them because I have bipolar disorder, and they make bipolars manic very easily. Wellbutrin is different, thus it works best for many bipolars.
Sorry to interrupt here, but I just saw this
thread. You say you have been on that combo
of drugs for 2 weeks-- maybe it takes a bit
longer for the lithium to work; also, that
looks like a lot of drugs to me.

metaphors would make me suspicious that you
have a psychoanalyst for a doctor. I would
consider going to a GP or a clinical psychiatrist.Squiggles
