Celexa Wellbutrin was is an effective dosage?

Posted by bonnie_ann on April 24, 2001, at 15:35:22

I have been playing around with dosing and what not since January. I would like to get to that content place again.
I'm now at 20mg Celexa and 75mg 2x a day.
I'm still a little anxious at times- worrying about everything I can, making up stuff.
I feel flat and that scares me - I'm used to having so much emotion - the flatness - boredom- unexcitement-
yawning- It's weird.
I like the Wellbutrin mostly because It's keeping me from snacking and I can push myself away from the table and I'm not craving chips, cookies etc.
My weight has been maintained and slowly decreasing
(gained 15 pounds since this started 1 1/2 years ago).
I want to continue with the Wellbutrin for that reason alone- I tried 150mg SR once and I couldn't tolerate the stimulation- sent me into anxiety. So since then I have taking the IR 75mg twice a day - How many times a day can you take the 75mg Wellbutrin? How far apart are the doses supposed to be. As for the Celexa I am up for suggestions- raise the dose, lower it, quit it?
I feel stable and in control- I just need some feelings back.
Thanks,
Bonnie

My pdoc said I was taking the max dose @ 150 mg three times per day 6 hours apart.
