hi leedsman,

> I was taking Lexapro for 6 weeks and really did not have much success , I started getting really bad necka nd muscle pain, I talked to my pdoc and she asked me if I wanted to take Wellbutrin along with Lexapro to give it a boost, but what I have read on the psycho-babble, it makes you high like you are on marijuana or something. >

hadn't heard that one

> I thought I would just try Paxil again and am taking 25mg Paxil CR for 3-4 weeks to see if it helps, can you take Wellbutrin with Paxil also? >

from what Theo was just posting, that answwr seems to be yes ...

> I had really good results with regular Paxil, for 5 years, I know there is a time release with the CR, but it's still the same right? >

well, i'd presume so, but i do not know ... ... the manufacturer's web site should make that clear ...

> What if I get off Paxil after a week can I start right on the Lexapro again or should I wean down. >

i don't have any positive paxil experience to know one way or the other ... ... except that paxil withdrawals are so notorious ... but one week ? ... beats me ... another post for the main board where there will be more folks with paxil experience, maybe ?

> I appreciate your advice and I hope Lexapro is working for all of you >

thanks ... best to you, leedsman ...
... come and visit anytime ... ... it'd be great to hear how you are doing there ...
TAKE CARE !
