I tried Zoloft (made me too numb), Effexor (too sleepy), and Lexapro (didn't help enough). Then pdoc added Wellbutrin (150mg then 300mg) to the Lexapro (10mg). I quit taking the Lexapro because I never really thought it did that much, other than cause sexual side effects. I didn't even notice any difference without the Lexapro. Then I ran out of Wellbutrin, mainly because I didn't like the pdoc I had. I was off about 2 weeks when I got a new rx (300mg xr) which I started 5 days ago. This pdoc also gave me Adderall (20mg xl) because I have been suffering with ADD symptoms my whole life, but never really understood that until my son was just diagnosed and started Ritalin. My questions are:
1. How long until my body adjusts to these meds and would I have been better off getting my body adjusted to the Wellbutrin again before starting both together? I get a little shaky late afternoon. Today, I took only the Wellbutrin and thought maybe I'd wait a week or so to continue the Adderall.
2. Would one of those drugs cause very intense orgasms? I haven't had an orgasm in 2 years due to all the SSRI's. The Lexapro has been out of my system for about a month now. I started taking the Wellbutrin/Adderal and have had the best orgasms I have ever had in my life!
I'm new to the site, but would really appreciate your input. I have read a lot of postings and know there are a lot of experienced and bright people out there.
