There are quite a few people who need 300 mg/day of Effexor. I'm one of them. 225 mg/day was insufficient.Why are you taking Wellbutrin? Did it help at all?
If there is any history of bipolarity in your family, I would suggest taking lamotrigine 200-300 mg/day.
I forgot to ask - Did lithium help at all?
If Nardil worked, and it has been 3 months or more since you last took it, you might be responsive to it again.
Were you under any additional stress leading up to your relapse while taking Nardil?

Some see things as they are and ask why.
I dream of things that never were and ask why not.The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.
