> well all here it is two weeks after getting off effexor and im about to try wellbutrin does any one have any good advice about this drug all i know is yes i made it through the withdrawal after two weeks but i have had so much anxiety even to the point of waking up at night scared to be in the dark? anyway i just was wondering if there are any happy words for the use of the wellbutrin? thanks and peace marsha
It is too bad that your doctor didn't elect to simply add the Wellbutrin to the Effexor. It makes a good combination.Wellbutrin can produce anxiety and irritability early in treatment, but it often disappears. I am currently taking 300mg. After 3 weeks, the anxiety is virtually gone. I am combining it with nortriptyline, so I imagine I am more susceptible to this as a side effect. It might not affect you like that at all. Wellbutrin is a good drug that is worth evaluating.
What are you taking Wellbutrin for?
What is your target dosage?
You might want to post some questions on the main board.
Good luck.
