I am on Wellbutrin and Abilify. Frankly I don't know if they improve my mood much, but I'm not stopping them to find out what exactly they are doing. The Abilify is giving me a very slight involuntary motion of the arms, so the doc just added a tiny dose of Cogentin to the mix, it is a side-effect suppressant for the Abilify.

Of all the antidepressants I have been on, Wellbutrin has settled best with me. The ssri's like Paxil and Prozac killed my sex drive and made me feel very flat.

I am also on Simvastatin for cholesterol, and I just read that it can cause memory issues, so I am wondering if my occasional foggy memory is because of the statin or if it is all the other stuff I am taking.
