i have changed recently from zoloft to wellbutrin. i thought my problem was manic depression, but now that social anxiety disorder has come across my radar, i really wonder if it THIS isn't the problem, or an additional problem. anyway, with zoloft (6 yrs) i was worried about a persistent undercurrent of apathy that seemed to be taking hold. now, i am in a constant state that vacillates between anger and anxiety. its only been a little over 2 weeks at this dosage, though.
somebody tell me this will get better? and will wellbutrin help with social anxiety disorder?
i always thought that i had no friends (really...none) because i'm a terrible person. of course, that could really be it. but i venture to guess that a psychiatrist/psychologist somewhere would think it clinical. i would never call anyone on the phone, or email them, because i feel its an imposition. i can't conceive of having anyone in my house because i would be embarrassed that its dirty. i have been described by others as anything from "reserved" to "unfriendly." okay, one person called me extremely vulnerable, and of everthing that's ever been said about me, that disturbed me the most. i haven't seen her since. i HATE to hug people because i tremble at any physical contact. (my husband was charmed because he thought it was only him!) i hate restaurants. once-as a child-i stopped speaking to my father. i think it lasted a year. (but who knows how my memory has twisted that?) i would love not speaking at all, but that gets you more attention than saying something stupid, unfortunately.
