Guest guest Posted July 13, 2010 Report Share Posted July 13, 2010 Take a look here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bupropion for info on bupropion. Yes, it seems to have a problem with causing anxiety, but the mention of " paradoxical effects " suggests that it behaves differently, in different people. If you're taking an SSRI (that's causing sexual dysfunction), bupropion might help with the sexual dysfunction, and might not make your anxiety any worse. If you try it by itself, you may know fairly quickly whether it's helping your anxiety, or making it worse. > > Has bupripion helped anyone.

Guest guest Posted July 13, 2010 Report Share Posted July 13, 2010 I take Bupropion (Wellbutrin XL) 450mg/day for my depression. It does increase anxiety a little and for me that is too much. BUT...I cant make it without an AD so I take klonipin .5mg 2/day. I don't love taking a drug like Klonipin but have no choice yet. Bupropion helps my depression a lot without sexual side effects. I must recommend that you make sure and get the brand Wellbutrin XL, many have found the generic unsuitable, (google search for more on that) It is expensive so I order it from Canada saving about 75%!

Guest guest Posted July 14, 2010 Report Share Posted July 14, 2010 Maybe you should organise your life differently to experience less anxiety. Evaluate your decisions, thoughts, emotions, communication style, occupation, behavioral patterns, and life situation. Discuss that with intelligent and wise people. One of them could be a psychologist. All the best. > > Has bupripion helped anyone.
