In reply to Re: Anyone on Wellbutrin/ Xanax (or Benzo combo), posted by Nic on January 29, 2001, at 13:48:31
I take Wellbutrin along with Lorezapam. I used to take Xanax, but I agree with the aforementioned. Xanax is more addictive and has higher withdrawal properties, because your body quickly builds up a tolerance to the med.
Lorezapam isn't as relaxing as Xanax, but does help with the symptoms of anxiety and situations.
I recently added Buspar to the mix, because I would rather treat the overall imbalance than just the symptoms. It's working rather well, slowly, and as the dosage gets increased. I have taken Buspar before by itself for anxiety alone in the past, and had good results then, too.
Hope this helps.
