This is a great way to think about things. Just don't forget that circuits are at least as important as the neurotransmitters that modulate the communication between them. I have deficits in everything that you listed above. Yet, Wellbutrin makes me feel significantly worse.
I found that Wellbutrin produced dysphoria for me. How would you interpret this?
Thanks for your feedback.
> Try checking out provigil too...Provigil was a disaster for me. Not only did it leave me dysphoric and in a cognitive fog while I was taking it, these things persisted for a few weeks after I discontinued it. It was quite painful. This seems to be an unusual reaction, though.
