Hello. This is a *very* educational bulletin board. I'm glad I ran across it. Thank you all.
I am a 55 y/o female health care worker and a recovering drug addict/alcoholic. I've been bulimic since I was 18. The bulimia is worse when I'm not using drugs/alcohol. I'm currently on Wellbutrin 150SR b.i.d.
No one seems to know much about treating bulimia, so my pdoc has given me whatever I ask for. Been on Klonopin, Xanax, Zyprexa, Seroquel. Took Wellbutrin and Zoloft for a few years. Took Prozac in 1990 and it pooped out on me. Have tried almost every other AD out there except Celexa.
After reading your postings I have decided to ask my pdoc for Topamax. Will probably take it with the Wellbutrin or switch to Celexa depending upon his recommendations. He's quite knowledgeable in psychopharmacology, but, as I said, few are helpful when it comes to bulimia.
Thanks in advance for any comments or suggestions.
