Lex AND Wellbutrin ???
Hello All .. Need some help.
I’ve been on Lexapro for about a year for anxiety and panic attacks,
it’s worked great for me. I also take Ativan as needed. Lex is the
only anti-depressant I could stay on for longer than 3-4 days. I was
getting concerned because I’ve gained about 25 pounds in 8 months. I
started at 5′8 120. I have always been thin. So I’ve never even
thought of dieting. I’ve tried that AND exercise- NOTHING… I feel
fat . I want my body back.. And I have 0 sex drive UGH.
I went to my MD today and she said I should try adding Wellbutrin to
the Lex. it’s supposed to help lose weight and improve sex drive!! I
am afraid to take ANOTHER med on top of Lex!?!?!? Plus she gave
me “regular” Wellbutrin 75 mg not the SR or XL, because she only
wants me to take it in the morning and hopefully it will wear off at
night so I can sleep… Anyone have any advice??? I’m not sure what
to do??

I think I have heard of people on Celexa and Wellbutrin. But I think
Wellbutrin makes people hyped. I would not like this since I have
anxiety…
just something I think I remember from a Celexa group.
Have you started it yet?
