Lexapro/Wellbutrin combo? All together now!
Hi! Does anyone have any wisdom to share? -A little on edge over here-
After 6 mos on Wellbutrin, I quit bc it made my insomnia worse and didn't help with anxiety, but did make me feel peppy and alive. -lots of energy-
Now the Doc put my back on Wellbutrin XL 300mg (I know, high starting dose) and added 10 mg Lexapro, which I have never tried. I guess he thought it was okay to start them together, but I decided to start the Wellbutrin first and see how bad those early side effects were before adding the Lex.
Day 5 on Wellbutrin: jittery and nervous, but it's not horrific.
Here are the questions: The doc said that Lexapro had a calming effect. --Should I go ahead and start the Lexapro now (hoping it will calm me a little) or wait a little longer to adjust to the WB?
--Does Lexapro help you become calmer in those first days/weeks or wired out of your mind?
--Does anyone have any experience with this combo.
Any insight, even just a little, will be very much appreciated.
Thanks,
Missy
