I invited Bill to have dinner with me last Sunday. He wasn't willing to drive 7 hours to mid Michigan and teased me with his beautiful ribs!!! So, of course I ate alone and had cedar salmon

check out that smoke ring. It tasted really good. I smothered it with Maulls BBQ sauce which is Local to St. Louis and one of the best I ever had.....
I'm taking Pristiq but I think that it is pooping out (stopped working)
You probably know this, but they all work with different neurotransmitters
I think that Bupropion increases dopamine (kind of a feel good transmitter).
I've known a lot of people who feel nervous on this.
There are many that work on serotonin, Prozac, Paxil, zoloft and many others.
Pristiq works with serotonin and another one (tricyclic??)
Then there are the much older tricycle medications. It seems like all of the ads on TV are suggesting that people take an antidepressant and then something else to boost it! I usually let my doctor know if things are still not working after awhile. The hard part is coming off one and going onto another
Good Luck with all of ths
