I am now on day 14 of Brintellix. I guess I would hone my description of "sedating" to demotivation. And it is similar to the SSRI apathy that I've had in the past that the Lamictal always seemed to cure.
In other words, I could just stay in bed knowing that I have stuff to do and not care...not pursuing my hobbies or friends. etc. I'm sure you all know the drill.
Seeing as I am giving Brintellix a "trial run", I don't want to start adding other drugs until I have a handle on it.
But, yes, adding ritalin does seem to make sense.
