Hi there, I'm in need of your opinions/expertise. I have lost hope in doctors since they haven't been of use at all.
Starting from the beginning, I've always been kind of quiet and all so others haven't noticed when I was starting to be unable to focus on schoolwork and I spent most of my time daydreaming, I sometimes didn't even notice starting to daydream until I came out of it.
I know that at one point I definitely had zinc deficiency since white dots had appeared on my fingernails and warts appeared on my fingers, both disappeared after supplementation of zinc.
I haven't been able to enjoy the things I used to, like coding, and I can't seem to start any projects, I just start and I lose interest in it in 5 minutes. Since then the daydreaming has stopped and I don't notice any haze-like state anymore but I don't have any motivation and it's still a bit hard to stay focused. Recently I also have noticed occasional sexual anhedonia.
I've been to two psychiatrists aswell, the first one suspected depression. She prescribed amisuplride, which had no effect except the first time I took it I grinned at myself in the mirror for 5 minutes, which had might aswell a placebo. Few weeks after she prescribed sertraline, which had no effect on me and switched it to venlafaxine, which also didn't seem to work.
The second one suspected ADHD and I got prescribed for Concerta (methylphenidate), this had a very, and I do mean very, mild effect on me on the first day and no apparent effects could be felt after.
Now I don't even feel the effects of alcohol except for slight disorientation, it used to make me more social and hyper but now I still stay in my shell. I recently ordered l-tyrosine from Smart Powders and even that doesn't provide anything except losing the tired feeling when I wake up in the morning.
I would be really grateful if anyone had any advice or could point me in the right direction.
