Here is the situation-I have a long term battle with depression-last year it got really bad..I finally was put on Wellburtin-450 MG a day. I noticed within the last couple of months I had memory issues so I stopped taking it. They were not major-just enough to bother me..I wouldn't be able to think of certain non-important things such as names of actors, etc.. I wasn't overly concerned about possible negative effects of stopping WB because my depression seemed to come in cycles..I would be ok for a while and then become depressed..maybe I am borderline bipolar, but WB didn't put me into hypomania..maybe I had more of a dysthimia.
Regardless, due to memory issues, I stopped taking WB temporarily to see how that would work..In the meantime I also started supplementing with DHEA. I have not been depressed and even noticed I have felt better than I have ever felt on WB-I feel sharper and my active vocabulary has increased again..never had trouble with verbal (had 760 Verbal SAT), but I felt as if I was using simpler words and having trouble vocalizing. I also noticed my anxiety which I definitely have suffered from all of my life has decreased..I feel more confident. I don't think its all in my head.
Anyone else experience success with DHEA? Just wondering..
