Hi there. this is my first post on this board - fyi. i accidently put this question on the wrong one.
thanks for the great thread on wellbutrin and weight.
just wondering if anyone out there on Lexapro has experienced side effects of intense dreams, and over-tiredness. seems like that's normal for SSRIs. Lexapro has helped my anxiety a lot. i've been on the 10 mg for about 3 months. i don't wake up with racing thoughts, and def. have been able to reduce overall anxiety. i also moved out of nyc and got a new job. that could help too. :)
but - anyway - in addition to being tired a lot, i haven't been able to get up early and get to the gym. i have a lot of energy normally - but .. i haven't been motivated to work out. and i have def. gained weight.
i'm calling my doctor today b/c i can't take the weight side effect and lack of energy. working out is really important to me. i've struggled with weight before, but have kept of lots of weight for years.
has anyone added wellbutrin to the lexapro to curb this side effect.
thanks in advance.
spa girl.
