wellbutrin xl hasn't been out ten yrs yet....clarification for prev. post: have been on every previous version of wellbutrin (immed. release, then the SR version, and finally the XL version whenever it came out 2003/2004? not sure) alongside the buspirone. never used monotherapy buspirone...has always been augment for wellbutrin.
the buspirone seems to keep the feelings of anxiety at bay enough to function. it also keeps the wellbutrin induced anxiety tamped down to a tolerable level.
been a long time working w/ a great pdoc to find an effective cocktail. also lots of tolerating unpleasant SEs to get to the "oh! this is working well enough after all" stage. again just this poster's personal experiences FWIW.
good luck and hope you find relief soon. anxiety blows.
