Current Events > So they just added 100mg wellbutrin onto my 20mg Lexapro

(+) Yeah! (+)

I guess this is better than wanting to die(i won't do it, never would, but I think about wanting go die a lot and I hate it).

The nice thing about wellbutrin is that it lacks the sexual side effects of all other antidepressants

But I'm on Lexapro, which is super heavy on those effects.

However, it doesn't give me ED or anything, just makes it take me fucking forever to orgasm.

I'm on a fun mix of venlafaxine, abilify, and wellbutrin. No real improvements yet.

I know how you feel about wanting to die though. I get like that a lot. Never actually consider suicide but I go through periods where I wouldn't mind getting hit by a bus.

That's exactly how I feel. No matter how bad yhings get, I'd never kill myself, but I at times wouldn't mind beigg hit by a bus

This shit has me cracked the fuck out.

They just took my wife off Wellbutrin after a year or so of it just not doing anything. So far, I've not seen any real good results from that medication for most people.

Oh yeah man it'll do that, it's basically a cup of coffee or two. Take it in the morning. Also it suppresses hunger so watch out for that.

I've found it the only antidepressant that has worked, but I'm also bipolar and my depression operates differently. Give it a shot but make sure you don't go full crack head either

welbutrin is a very good antidepressant, but it's too stimulating for me

I have major depressive disorder and borderline personality disorder lol. And I had taken it yesterday, and hardly slept, still feel wide awake and cracked out, miss Mary couldn't even bring it down.

Yes exactly.

I tried wellbutrin and it did literally nothing. Hope it works better for you

I've been listening to nonstop deep house for hours for some reason. Getting tons of shit done at work.

I know what this is. This is mania. (I'm not bipolar).

Hmm.

sounds like what adderall does to me >_>
---

I couldnt stomach lexapro whatsoever. Ive heard pretty good things about Wellbutrin though

I've been on venlafaxine for about half my life. Seems to help somewhat with depression.

it's very good. I only don't take it because I get agitated while on it and extra anxiety. it used to be the perfect antidepressant for me though

I've been on this cocktail for the better half of a year at this point. My mood usually caps out around "I'd pay money for a semi to crash through this wall right now."

The repeated metaphorical kicks to my emotional crotch are probably not helping matters any.

Yeah it can trigger some slight manic symptoms. It works off dopamine so that's why you can be hella focused. I'm lucky to be on Lamictal which suppresses the mania, or I'd be in one giant manic episode

I've been on Wellbutrin paired with kpins for over 10 years now. It's been a good combo for me, and when I started taking it helped me get to a healthier weight.

I was also on lamictal for 6-7 years but went off of it because I realized it kept me drowsy and was the reason I was falling asleep in class in high school and college for the first year or 2.
