> > I am just starting Lexapro but when I was on Wellbutrin I had a really bad experience drinking. I seriously almost died. I had a couple of drinks and was suddenly very drunk, drank another and became very sick. I had an EMT with me who helped me through it, but if you do have a drink, be careful, they catch up very fast. I would not want it to happen to anyone else!

> Oh my gosh, that sounds like what happened to me. I was fine one minute and the next couldnt even stand up. I blacked out because I dont remember most of what happened after that. The next day I felt horrible, actually for two days. I have never had an experience like that even in my younger days as an inexperienced drinker. It was scary.

Exactly! Everyone out there, be warned, drinking on these medications can have very serious consequences. Make sure people with you know what is going on if you do decide to drink. Better yet, don't drink alcohol, even a sip. Just tell people that it ruins your metabolism, which it does! Peace and good health!
