Are there any antidepressants that will make me more alert rather than sleepy and tired?

Are there any antidepressants that will make me more alert rather than sleepy and tired? This has been my experience with all the drugs I've tried so far. Budeprion being the last one and the worse cause it makes me so sleepy and lethargic, yeah too often I find myself sitting there as if lifeless, staring into space, feeling like a rock with no feelings or emotions...Are there any drugs that will give me more pep and energy instead of making me just wanna stay in bed all day?

Yeah I have an appointment next week. You can read why on one of my earlier posts about Budeprion. Thank you.

I would highly recommend you see a psychiatrist to get a proper diagnosis firstly and discuss medication possibilities, it's never a good idea just to choose one and then ask for the med, it may not work for you, especially if you have a different diagnosis.
