Got to see the doc today. She got some Effexor samples, and it put both of us in a quandry.
The Effexor withdrawal is nearly over; plus, I've been
on the Wellbutrin for a a little over a week now.
She's never "known me" not being on medication, and we
both wonder how I'll do without it some day or if I can
do without medication. We were both of the same mind
-- stay on the Wellbutrin; hold off on going back on the
Effexor. See if some of the side effects I'm
experiencing (nausea, some vomiting, no appetite, and
frequent diarrhea) are from the Effexor withdrawal, my
extreme stressed state and depression, or the Wellbutrin.She and I both are happy about the Wellbutrin and no weight gain. I've also
noticed that my smoking has decreased, the urge to smoke
has lessened, without me trying to quit.Any thoughts on the switch from Effexor to Wellbutrin? I had
poop out on Prozac and Zoloft. The Effexor worked very, very well
for me, including bringing my sex drive back to life. Am only
off of it because of no insurance or finances to purchase it
outright, and P-doc didn't have any samples and couldn't reach
the Wyeth-Ayerst rep.Is there poop-out on Wellbutrin? How does it affect female
sex drive and umm... orgasm potential?Any and all help and support is greatly appreciated. I'm
finally realizing I have a job -- FINALLY... and things
are going to get better. Still scared though.
