In reply to Lexapro and Wellbutrin, posted by bridgette on November 5, 2002, at 15:15:51
Hi. I feel better on Wellbutrin also, maybe too because I was on Lexapro when I started. Whatever the reason, it feels good to feel good.
I take Lexapro (10mg) and Wellbutrin (150 mg. 2x day when I remember, I often forget the 2nd dose) and a low dose of clonophinne for anxiety, but I don't know if this is right for me. I still feel anxious a lot. I am not depressed, so I thought that I should get off the Lexapro, but every time I try to wean off, I feel very snappy and miserable. I like the Wellbutrin because it helped me loose 20lbs of sudden weight I gained during perimenopause and it keeps me thin. Do I need the Lexapro? Is there something better for just anxiety? I want to feel at peace> This is my 1st day on the two of them together and I feel great---but, how can that be---is it just a placebo effect, or the fact that I was on Lexapro for 5 weeks made the Wellbutrin work instantly. See, I'm not used to feeling good, so I question WHY? I have to say the things I have read on line about Wellbutrin were all pretty positive!
