I have similar experience with mental illness (bipolar 2) and that's what I thought for the first couple years. a literal wonder drug! I could be social, I had energy to get up and work, I got a boyfriend. But gradually it loses the magic - or you have to keep increasing dose and eventually if you run out of money you're fucked. I'm guessing that if you're here, like me, you're probably fairly well off.

Have you tried tramadol? Or some SNRIs+low dose opiate or tramadol? Ask your psych for a tramadol script I've found my therapist to be receptive to that as med. I find that effexor helps with withdrawals and tramadol and effexor both helped a lot more than SSRIs for me - the problem is with bipolar it causes cycling
