Looks like your depression is causing lethargy and you want a boost in mood and energy. If Wellbutrin is not doing the trick I suggest a SNRI like Cymbalta or maybe Effexor. Those can also be combined with Wellbutrin to maximize the energy boost. Also if you haven't tried Wellbutrin 300mg maybe this only could gives you energy. Anyway those are all things you can check out with your doctor.

When does the Wellbutrin start to boost mood? I have had a return of sexual function, for which I am grateful. However, I would like to have a REAL life and a sex life.

She is recovering but suffers mood swings. I used to have lots of empathy but lately have noticed I am lacking in empathy. I feel numb and have had irrational thoughts since April. I feel I am never going to get back to the happy bubbly person I used to be. I have just started working after a year and feel I can't cope. I have just started taking the Citalopram but it is making me feel dizzy.

Well, without a clinical evaluation it would be difficult to determine the cause of your symptoms. Possibilities that may need to be considered are malabsorption, infections/ inflammations, inadequate fiber intake etc. With dark stools one may need to rule out GI bleeding as well, which could again have a number of secondary causes like infections/ inflammations, ulcers, erosions, growths/ masses etc.

Interesting - I am always curious about these reports especially when current practise seems to be to report to the media about findings from only one study often with no controls or taking into account any counter -studies. I also want to pose a question to all to think about - The brain is mostly fat but that fat is saturated so why do we need to eat Omega 3 fats which are polyunsaturated? I've been curious for a while about this but not found an answer.

ve been trying to conceive my period has been getting heavier and lasting longer and mood swings stronger with each month we don't conceive. This mouth was the worst so far I actually thought I may have been pregnant my breast and private area was very swollen and sore hardly cramping and my period was 2 days late is this a good or bad sign.

Getting through that frame of mind is really difficult. You could try keeping a workout journal or putting up post its to remind you of the buzz you get after exercise or the achievements you've made. Likewise you can make plans to exercise with a friend at least once a week, even just a walk. The socialising will boost your mood as well as the exercise and it's a good way to prevent any unmotivated changes in plans because of the expectation to meet up.

I'm 30-31weeks, and lately all I do is sleep. Is this normal? I haven't been in the mood to do anything I usually enjoy, I don't even want my friends around me. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Thanks... I'm really going to have to start meal prepping, because if I keep eating like this I'll be huge before I even start showing.

Some people get good results with "superfoods" such as bee pollen, royal jelly, spirulina because they are so highly concentrated with nutrients. Adrenal aids such as eleuthero and rhodiola can be helpful as well.

It did give me a little boost in mood. I don't believe it boosted my metabolism, because I lost no weight from it. Only since I have been jogging like a maniac have I lost ANY weight. I wish that I had my old metabolism back!!!

Additionally, the bird is rich in DHA omega-3 acids, which have been shown to boost brain function, improve your mood and turn off fat genes, actually preventing fat cells from growing! Just make sure you buy white meat only, as dark contains too much fat. And steer clear of prepackaged, sliced lunchmeat.

I had a vaginal ultra sound 2 weeks ago and I was ovulating the day it was done and I had sex the night before so hoping for a positive result. Im trying to boost my fertility naturally and avoid the high costs of pharmaceutical drugs. Any other suggestions?

Reuteri has pointed out the benefit of introducing pribiotics to help ease depression. I have recently read an article about how natural yoghurt and pribiotic drinks can help boost mood, because they affect brain function. Gut bacteria send signals to the brain, and vice versa. Stress and other emotions often affect our guts, as I am sure some of you know. So the article suggests it is worth taking natural yoghurt and pribiotic drinks to relieve anxiety, stress and other mood conditions.

am taking 400mgs/day with no side effects but it seems to have stopped working. it prob needs an anti psychotic to boost it for me but pdoc hasn't come up with one yet. you do h ave to take increases v. slowly to avoid lamictal rash etc.. i increased every fifth day. pdoc should be monitoring carefully to watch out for any side effects, good luck with it.

I use lithium and lamictal for my mood stabilizers and will stay on them through my pregnancy. The tentative plan is to add topamax after baby for the migraines and an added mood stabilizer boost. I am loving the possible side effect of weight loss as I am overweight, but I would be devastated if I lose my hair. I may have a migraine everday but they're not so bad I would hand over my hair for relief.

The trick is to listen to your body and satisfy your craving. Everything in moderation is my motto. Hope this helps.

So somehow, someway your husband will need help and have to find a way to pay for it. Maybe there are inexpensive local clients that could help? State programs? Otherwise I am afraid you husband could stay in this state for years. Also if he has advanced liver disease and he doesn't treat his hepatitis he could end up needing a liver transplant which costs 100s of thousands of dollars if he wants to continue living. Waiting when someone has a serious health issue can be very dangerous.

I would call a healthline in your region and see if they have any advice for you. You may have to go to your doctor to fix this temporary situation. Wishing my best.....please let us know how you are doing after this.

On what to take for extreme fatigue? Its beyond bad to the point I want to cry and I'm even in a horrible mood. I have so much to do today and don't wanna spend it like this.

Hi Amanda, So if your libido is down then you could try some DHEA its a hormone that can be brought over the counter, It will boost your testosterone, lift your libido and kick up your energy levels, but please read up about it first as it can have the odd funny side effects for the odd person, just google DHEA for women and have a good read, if you do deside to try it just start a a low dose say 25mg a day, and build it up from there, and if you get a side effect just come off it, its that easy

they talked about foods that were scientifically proven to boost your mood! I felt like they were talking directly too me, haha!

Anyone who is in chronic pain will have those days as you describe. It's perfectly normal...it's a grieving process. Yes, it can be quite overwhelming...I honestly know how you feel in that respect. Everyone has this and must come to terms with their illness in their own time. There is no set rules for grief...it's due to the loss of part of our lives. You have nothing whatsoever to feel ashamed for.
