I don't get how people can become depressed, when we live in the century of Fentanyl, easy access to alcohol and amusement arcades.

There are amphetamine antidepressants. You can ask your doctor about it (e.g. bupropion, which is not addictive).

Brother I've been on bupropion and I loved it. Hypomania is a blast, though maybe not for someone taking to me due to pressured speech. The tachycardia and tremors though, was a bit much for me.

Yeah I've been on bupropion for about 1.5 years. Had an increased heart rate in the beginning as well so we started at a very low dosis, then went up step by step. However the side effects vanished after 2 months. I don't feel hyper active, I just don't feel super low anymore. It doesn't make the depression go away but it allows me to work on it, because otherwise I couldn't even get out of bed
