A Faster Lift

Depression treatment usually asks for six weeks of faith; Auvelity — dextromethorphan paired with bupropion — arrived promising movement in one, and the people who needed speed took note.

Inside this volume

Fifty first-person accounts describe starting the twice-daily tablet after SSRIs failed or crawled: the lifts some writers felt inside a fortnight, described with the caution of people who had been fooled before; the dizziness and dry mouth of adjustment; the seizure-history and interaction screening the combination requires; and the insurance gauntlet a branded psychiatric drug attracts. Writers include full responders, partial ones, and those for whom the fast drug was simply another slow no.

Who it's for

For anyone weighing Auvelity with their prescriber, in the first weeks and counting days honestly, or exhausted by the six-week faith cycle.
