In fact, the b-blockers have worked so well that I might revisit Wellbutrin, which worked wonders for my depression but caused killer day-long anxiety.

My pdoc thinks it's my anxiety and depression's side effects that is the problem, which I tend to agree with. Benzos add to my depression so what to use for anxiety is a real dilemma. Just keeping u updated but if u have a suggestion I would appreciate that also.
