Thanks so much for your reply Cam! I have been taking the Wellbutrin for 6 months now. I started real low at 75IR and now am up to 225. I didn't really have side effects (some ringing and a possible one time occurence of alopecia. Oh yeah, there is the weight loss but who is complaining:-)). In fact I never got that high energy stage either which I had been looking forward to. Overall though my energy level is higher and sometimes I notice myself being a little speedy (if that is what you would call it, I have never taken speed, but I used to smoke and its like if you smoked way too many cigarettes). I just started the Zoloft two days ago. I realize it was probably not a good idea to start something new before the trip but I will be gone for two months and my anxiety is getting pretty bad. Not to mention my GP is really hard to get an appointment with. I am not sure if the anger is from the Wellbutrin or if its PTSD. Or maybe just personality. But, I think it is exacerbated by the Wellb. If you Cam or anyone have any thoughts on this combo or on the possiblity of something available in France I would love to hear. I wouldn't mind having something situational but I have been afraid to ask because I think they are things that are addictive and I don't want them to think I am "dope fiending them". Elizabeth and Sal I would love to hear your opinions too. However usually you are talking way over my head. :-)Thats all for now, wish me luck. I am packing up all my stuff into storage, putting my two kitties with two separate people and taking my son, his babysitter and her daughter to live in France for two months (where I am going to study) and travel to Spain, Austria, and Germany. Maybe that sounds great but right now I don't know what I was thinking. I feel like I am totally responsible for everyone having this perfect time and all I can think about are all the things that could go wrong. I am sure some of you know what I am talking about. Thanks for letting me vent.
