Thanks. That was very helpful. I'll research and talk to my GP about Cymbalta and buproprion. Lofepramine is desipramine and my GP says they don't really prescribe it any more, because it is old-fashioned (probably something to do with cost in reality). Whether that is true for nortiptyline as well, I don't know. I can at least ask.
I realise that these drugs all have side effects but some are so bad that they prevent me even having the limited life I have now. Any drug I take must give me a better life than I am having now, even if only slightly. It is a delicate balance, I accept.
