Not what I expected
It was a big step for me to add Wellbutrin to lexapro after being on lexapro alone for 8 years between doses 5mg & 10mg ( went on for panic attacks / health anxiety / physical anxiety and I no longer have those issues.) now I have : disconnected from self, purposelessness, loss of spark, rumination, lack of motivation, just kinda blah? So I added 150mgXL of Wellbutrin late Feb. it’s June and I thought I’d feel WAYYYY better. Instead I kinda still feel the same way just not to the point where I’m like freaking out abt it , but still I try to solve it most days and wonder what do I reallt need to help my issue and what even is it. Anhedonia? Depression? Is it bc of the LEXAPRO? Is it just in general? The Wellbutrin made me ruminate a bit more & def more anxious at first. Not sure what move to make next. Just upped my LEXAPRO from 7.5 > 10 hoping to see improvement with that, but idk I expected Wellbutrin to really help with my motivation / lift the blah feeling more as it helps treat depression and is a stimulant. Why isn’t it doing it for me ?
