> Susan, the fear is a part of depression, as is the hopelessness, but the terror you're talking about could be anxiety caused by the Wellbutrin you're taking, it makes a lot of people very anxious especially early on in treatment.
<<Hi! How're you doing? :-) That's a good point too. I felt really on edge, nervous, and outright ANGRY when I first started taking Wellbutrin, but that seemed to subside. Maybe this is a more subtle side effect....I've been on it 2 months. With Paxil, I got every side effect, got it bad, and then might have lessened, but never went away, and always bugged me.
> However I've been on it (Wellbutrin) a year, and all I was doing was starting school this year, something I'd normally enjoy, and I was horrified, I couldn't sleep I couldn't eat, shaking like a leaf.
<<<Arrrgh. Have you had anxiety problems before Wellbutrin?> I couldn't do anything because my mind was spinning and everything became so confused I couldn't prioritize.
<<Yep, me too.Good to know. Good to think about. I'll ask my therapist next week.
Hope all is going well.
Susan
