In reply to effexor plus wellbutrin, posted by shadowmon on July 23, 2008, at 21:41:18
I've been on effexor for 5 years, just added Wellbutrin 1-1/2 months ago - don't give up too quick, and be VERY CAREFUL with caffeine!! I have to take my Wellbutrin before 2pm - I take 200mg in the morning, and try to remember to take it again at 12 but that's been hard... I was exhausted all the time with Effexor, even though I was out of the black hole - Wellbutrin has taken the fatigue away, and I'm actually - gasp - Happy the past few days! I function better at work, can think better, and feel better around people, too. I used to take 2-3 naps at lunch every week, but don't have to anymore.
Hang in there, cut down on your caffeine, and don't take the Wellbutrin too late in the day - give it a chance!
