Hi Tree,
I can't give you medically responsible
advice; but i do know some rules of thumb
about psychiatric drugs:- don't expect them to work right away;
don't expect to take a drug one night and
immediately feel marked results the next day --
some of these drugs have long "half-lives";- Klonopin should help you sleep, and if that
is the cause of your anxiety it will help;
however, if you are depressed, it won't do by
itself;- Wellbutrin is a stimulating anti-depressant,
so if you get more anxiety, that may be the reason;Looks to me like you should pay a visit to
your doctor for a review after a week or two
on these meds.I am sorry you are going through a rough time;
eventually you should get things right with the
help of your doctor, and you won't be so down
on yourself.Squiggles
