I had written about my 18 year old son on wellbutrin. Today we saw the doctor and he thought that maybe the increase in effectiveness was because he had been on a small dose of prozac at the beginning of the wellbutrin and then it left his system. Any one have expereince with the two together? Also, a lot of his symptoms are physical - dry mouth, weakness, etc. - do other peopoe experience these symptoms in relation to anxiety and depression? He gets so fucused on thse symptoms that he can't stand it. THat focus is what the wellbutrin ahd seemed to help.
Now he is on 400 wellbutrin and 10 prozac. THe docotr does suspect some sipolar and topamax may be next in a few weeks.He is afraid about starting college, but I am afraid for him to continue sitting in the house. I think the stimulation will be good for him even if he doesn't feel great. Any thoughts? He really doesn't do much at home and has stopped seeing friends, etc.
