I was originally on Paxil Cr 50mg. side effects were as bad as the depression. weight gain, loss of any sexual desire, more depression, disassociation, insomnia, etc. Dr switched me to Lexapro 10mg. then Phych switched me to 20mg. Sex came back with a vengence, and lost the weight, however the depression remained. Now phych has started me on Wellbutrin 100mg. Does anyone know of the withdrawal if any of lexapro and what are the side effects of Wellbutrin?

My sugestion is take both lexapro and wellbutrin at same time. It is proved that works I put my hand in fire if you dont feel better.
Anyway you can go from lex to wellb w/o waiting.
My suggestion is:
-->lexapro (is an SSRI so others could be, but now stay on lex)
-->wellbutrin SR(or the XL)150mg once.
(Amineptine could go well to you "blow up" for 2 months.)
Talk you doc and dont go with low dosages(as 37.5mg of wellb) take what you need.
My opinion.
