I actually have anxiety particularly social anxiety/panic attacks. I have started Wellbutrin this week 100mg time release, in conjunction with a Klonopin .5 mg in the morning, and I am feeling energized, and not anxious. I am still on 45 mg of Remeron, which I am going to wean off in a couple of weeks as I titrate up on the Wellbutrin, and provided that the Wellbutrin does the trick for my depression and anxiety without intolerable side effects. (So far so good!!) I just hate the weight gain from the Remeron, and I can't get it off. The Remeron also makes my personality flat, or sad. I don't experience happiness or joy on it. Now that I've started taking the Wellbutrin, I am feeling more energized and feel like my sense of humor is coming back. I've missed it!!! I'm probably going to stay on about 7.5 mg of Remeron for sleep. I hope it works for you, I think it's worth a try..
