I've been on Paxil and Wellbutrin for a few weeks and although my pdoc really thinks these are the right meds for me, she can't seem to get the dose right. I've already tried Lexapro and it didn't work. The Paxil by itself makes me sleep all day, and the Wellbutrin by itself makes me jittery and she won't let me try it by itself because I have GAD and panic disorder. So, I started on 10mg Paxil and 75 mg Wellbutrin. Now am on 5 mg Paxil at night and 150 Wellbutrin in the morning. But today I started feeling crappy because of the lack of Paxil and took an extra 75 mg Wellbutrin (along with a klonopin) at around noon. Please help me. Could taking too little of WB make me more tired? How long does it take to work??? It's been a few weeks and I have to go back to work on Jan 5 and am scared to death. Please help. Should I try some other meds? Maybe Effexor instead of WB? I metabolize meds really fast and therefore develop dependencies faster than most. I'm currently trying to wean myself off Klonopin and am down to .75 mg per day. Sorry for blabbering on and on, but between the holidays and this med mess I am just at the end of my rope. Thanks for any help you can offer.
