I have been depressed for 3+ years now. I finally started therapy 8 months ago. I am on my 3rd therapist and finally found one that I can connect with. I also started taking Wellbutrin 2 months ago. Overall I don't feel any better taking the meds. I have very short stints of feeling good, but most the time I have no energy and don't want to do anything. I think therapy is working. Anything ideas to get me out of this funk?

Hi ACDCblue.

I don’t have ideas but I’m glad you’re talking about it & thank you for being here.

Funk sucks!

I completely understand how you are feeling. I just try to accept funk as part of my illness and do the best that I can.

Talk your doctor and let him/her know how the meds aren’t working, I believe 2 months is more then enough time for you to see if they are working or not. Also read about the meds your on see what the side effects are. You know your body better then the doctor and they should listen to you, if it’s not working they should change your meds may take a while though to find the right combination too.
