Hi Andrea :wave:
I used to take Half Inderal (propananol sp?) it has a calming effect. If you are getting over tired on what you are taking it maybe that the dose is too strong. You need to find some middle ground. It could also be because the ANXIETY has worn you out and when you feel the peace of the medication it is an overwhelming relief and makes you feel tired.
Which ever when you are feeling well it is a good time to work on the underlying problem causing the anxiety. Reading books on anxiety with a view to self help can be useful.
Take care

Hi!
I was taking Paxil which made me very tired. However, it is for panic attacks (which, I guess is tied to anxiety).
I switched to Wellbutrin. I haven't made a decision as to whether or not I should remain on it, but I definitely notice a difference in my energy level.
Hope this helps.
