> Hey Simus..how are you doing??>.thanks for the encouragement and the dr did suggest that and you know me with the med phobia but that is certainly an option I'm taking the weekend to make my decisions and then I'll be off to begin this new journey...You are on Wellbutrin also?? arent you..because your experience with Lex wasnt good??..thank you for you help take care of yourself..Your friend Mystic
Hi Mystic,
I'm doing well. Thanks for always caring.
Actually, my doctor had me stop Lex (at 30mg) the same day as I started Wellbutrin (150mg). It was survivable. I felt great during the first day - just a little antsy, but I also felt great all night long (insomnia). The sleep deprivation started to get to me after a couple of days, but that subsided soon. But I think a little overlap of the two drugs would have taken the edge off adjusting to the Wellbutrin.
My Lexapro experience is very similar to yours, but maybe even a little worse.
Let us know what you are going to do and how you are feeling.
