Adding Wellbutrin to your Lexapro

[Guest guest]

Hi Everyone,

My name is . I am 48 yrs old and have struggled with depression

on and off most of my life.

I have been on Lexapro for the past 8 months (10 mg for the first 6

months, and now 20 mg for the last 2 months). While it did greatly

lessen the " sadness " , I feel very tired all the time, no energy or

motiviation to do anything. I just want to sleep -- I have no

interest in life.

My doctor just added Wellbutrin. She said it may help " kick start "

me in the morning, and if it works out that way, she will begin

increasing the Wellbutrin and decrease the Lexapro.

I started the Wellbutrin one week ago. I can't really say that I

feel a difference yet.

I'd be interested in any feedback or experiences that you have had

with adding Wellbutrin to your Lexapro.

Thanks -
