> The purpose of adding the Wellbutrin sr to the Lexapro is to allieviate the sexual side effects (it does) and to boost the Lexapro. I am afraid of the Wellbutrin even though I have had no problems but I worry (worrying is my thing) about the possibility of seizures. If there is anyworry about w/drugs I will worry. I take 150mg of wellbutrin a day and could increase it to 300 but I'm afraid to.
Bridgette,
I know how you feel. worrying is my thing too, especially when it comes to meds. If I read about the s/e before I take them, I get afraid to take them. Does the Wellbutrin help at all with the worrying? Lexapro seemed to really help me in the beginning but now I am starting to feel those same old things again (anxiety, worry, dread). Thats why I was asking about the Wellbutrin to see if it would help the Lexapro work better. I take it seizures are a s/e of Wellbutrin? GREAT, It always seems as though you have to make a trade off when you take a anti-depressant.
