I couldn't take the misery. I went back to 75mg of Effexor. Today I decided to also try 300mg of Wellbutrin XL. A couple of months ago when I tried it, it made me very sleepy. We'll see how it goes. If it doesn't work, I can always take 200mg of Wellbutrin at mid-morning so it will last a little longer into the day.

I haven't tried Lexapro with Wellbutrin. Does that lessen the seizure risk, compared to Effexor?
