I think that happened to me too. I tried the Wellbutrin route but the second time I was on it, I ended up with panic attacks. I'm sorry to hear you are in the same boat, sac.
> In response to your post, I am beginning to suspect that after 8+ years on Fluoxetine that it is causing me extreme fatigue, weakness, difficulty concentrating and narcoleptic type symptoms. I am also on Lithium (low dose) 450mg. and recently added Wellbutrin for some stimulant effects. I am having alot of difficulty at my job (accountant) because I feel sleepy and can't concentrate. I have tried Provigil which helps but leaves me very depressed/anxious when it wears off, so I gave up on that. I'm beginning to think that the Fluoxetine is the culprit. It's supposed to help my depression but I really don't feel that great on it. I think it's making me worse.
