I can rationalize and I am not afraid of everything like I was before. I was right because now I am taking Lexapro and I can honestly say I can concentrate, I feel normal and I am much more interested in sex than I ever was while taking Wellbutrin. I was falling apart, luckily I went crying to him and begged him to give me something else because after 10 days I knew something was wrong. Then a year later I started having BAD panic attacks and when I went to the doctor and told him I had taken Wellbutrin, he diagnosed it for me again and what a MISTAKE!! I had worse panic than I had ever had and insomnia.

I did feel a little better, but after a year I began to wean myself and quit taking it completely after 4 years of medication because I felt like it wasn't really doing anything. Then my doctor put me on Wellbutrin SR 150mg x2day. I was able to concentrate more, but my anxiety never went away and I still had frequent bouts with panic. My doctor started me on 75mg 1xday and then gradually moved me to 75mg 3xday. I had just been diagnosed with Anxiety Disorder and didn't know what to expect from any anti-depressant, since my tunnel vision and hot flashes disappeared, I thought it was working. Not helpful I took Wellbutrin for 4 years, little did I know it wasn't doing much for me. Rated for Panic disorder / agoraphobia Report
