It could be both the Seroquel & Wellbutrin. I got akathisia w/extreme rage w/ Effexor, which deals w/ norepinephrin, like Wellbutrin. Ive been down to 75mg from 375mg for a week. I was still feeling really depressed, aggitated & fearful yesterday, so I dropped my Seroquel from 250mg to 100mg. I was never suicidal/ homocidal until 5 weeks ago, when I started Seroquel- ironicly to try to calm me. When I ph'd my pdoc last week telling him how bad I felt, he said he would pass me off onto someone else if I didn't stop snapping at him. Next day went to emergency & they noticed the akethisia from the Effexor he kept upping & trying to mask w/ Seroquel. The more I complained, the less people wanted to help me. So try to make sure you remain calm, yet forceful. We're here to listen if you need to blow off steam. The situation compounds itself, when dealing w/ finances & relationships. My fiance finally started to understand when he got the info from the dr instead of me. Being temporarily separated helped. Giving up my pride & asking for disability/social assistance really helped too.
I go to pdoc on Tues, so will see what he says about everything. I've stopped thinking of him as my savior and am trying to rely on God to guide me. So much good info & caring people on Psycho-Babble. It's a huge blessing in my life.
All my best,
Jana
