effexor v. wellbutrin...same effects?

Posted by ants on October 5, 2004, at 10:55:14

I am wondering if I should switch to Wellbutrin or simply add it to my effexor...I love effexor's effects except for the sexual ones, which is why my GP suggested the switch. But the Effexor has really helped my anxiety, irritability, and moodiness....will Wellbutrin help these too? It seems to be mostly for depression-I think I am more anxious than depressed, although I did have a lot of crying spells.
Any ideas? I have samples of 150mg Wellbutrin XL. I currently take 75mg of Effexor XL, but I think 37.5mg would do the trick for me. Can I just take a Wellbutrin on top of the Effexor and see if my sex drive comes back...Do I need to space them out during the day?
