Wow, you and Lexy have so much going on right now-- good stuff though!
Thanks for the info. on Wellbutrin and Lexy's suggestion to see a psychiatrist instead of an internist. I've often thought about whether I should do that. I'll get some recommendations from my therapist and give it a try!
You said you have a short attention span - have you always? Has the WB allowed you to focus for longer amounts of time? I find that when I'm anxious, I hop all over my to do list and can't settle on finishing anything!
In general, I am a happy foggy tired person! I'm fairly newly married (just going on 2 years - 2nd marriage) and despite my problems and his (he was laid off 3 years ago, went back to get his MBA full time . . . very stressful! . . . and now hasn't found anything steady or in his field so his ego is deflated. Plus he has ex-wife issues still, unfortunately) we are very happy and still in the newlywed mode, thank goodness. I figure if we can make it through this, we'll be okay for the long haul. We're both 40ish and it is nice to know there is true love out there at any age :-).

Hi Lynne,

> Wellbutrin is often times rx'd for ADD symptoms. That is another reason I was curious about it, because I have such a short attention span. (The first week that I was on it my memory was horrible, it was a little inconvenient, but I think it has passed.)
