Over the last ten years I have taken xanax, elavil, Zoloft & sinequan, effexor & sinequan & xanax, brief lamictal, effexor & klonopin, now celexa & klonopin. Recently tried Wellbutrin to augment the celexa/klonopin to give energy. The first day on Wellbutrin I felt GREAT! Second day GOOD! Third day—terrible and nightmares, constipation, swelling, etc. This same phenomenon happened last year when I tried WB! Why can’t I feel as good ALWAYS as I did the first two days on Wellbutrin? Pdoc said stop WB because it is too activating for me. Now I am so discouraged. I feel like I hate myself. Has 3 days of WB changed me? I just want to stay in bed and cry (or sleep)but I can't sleep unless I take med to make me sleep. Meds make me tired but control pounding heart, nightmares, etc. Lexapro is supposed to work as well as celexa without the tiredness and I just can’t wait to try it. What is it about WB that made me feel so GREAT for 2 days? Why won't it last? Pdoc isn't good at answering questions. I'm amazed at the wealth of info at this board. HELP please. I'm supposed to be helping others but how can I when I feel this way.
Frustrated,
JaneB
