Feeling anxious and manic...

Posted by TrishP on August 12, 2005, at 13:57:52

I am taking 150XL Wellbutrin and only 37.5 Effexor. I took Effexor before at 75mg, which was great for mood, but bad for personal life. Now at the lower dose, I get anxious and feel a little manic sometimes. My moods feel all over the place. My doc wants me to take 300XL Wellbutrin, but it makes me tired and numb, almost more depressed. She also suggested Risperal or Seroquel as mood stabilizers, but I'm afraid of the freaky, permanent mouth twiches.

And I can't sleep (manic and anxious). I am taking .50mg of Klonopin and 50mg of Trazadone to sleep. If I feel a little crazy during the day I'll take half a Klonopin.

I know I probably need somethings to take with the Wellbutrin to help keep me stable. I'm just afraid of the personal side effects.

I've never tried lith or depakote because I'm afraid of getting fat.

What should I do? I see my doc on Monday. The Wellbutrin alone makes me feel to manic.
