Effexor SR, Buspar, Wellbutrin?? Help Me!

Posted by invisible15010 on December 30, 2003, at 6:57:07

I have tried the whole list of anti drepressants from Paxil, Serzone, Zoloft....all made me very sick. I started Effexor SR about a year and half ago. I was down to 150 mg in the am. I have also been on Ativan for anxiety, a real problem my whole adult life. The depression seemed to be triggered after the death of my Father (alzheimers), a horrible marriage, a horrible divorce, loss of my career, struggle with MBA, interviews, custody battles, bankruptcy.....you guys have heard the story before but it was I have been living thru.......I the Effexor really seemed to be helping with the depression symptons, but as I struggling to get a life together again I have met a truely sweet woman and am worried about the lack of sexual desire, maintaining an erection....etc....very embarasssing...so I asked my new psy. ..whom I don't trust.....to put me on Wellbutrin as I have read about the zero sexual side effects.......well this was two weeks ago and I could not figure out what was happening to me as she took me off the Effexor after 4 days....horrible dreams, flu like symptons, can't focus, horrible brain zaps (now I know what some of you were writing about!) I can't deal with this and interview., etc. I am afraid to drive!

Has any one taken Effexor and Wellbutrin together?
I read on one web site that is prescribed together and patients do quite well?????????

Also any suggestion on anxiety. The Ativan truely does help. I take 1 mg 3 times a day. I know that I am addicted to it. My family dr. does not even want to give it to me. But I am scared to death to stop taking it.

You know this all sucks! I never thought that I would be dealing with any of this. But it is real!
