The status is NOT quo.

I had a really rough day yesterday that culminated in an awful panic attack. Has anyone else had bad side effects switching back from generic to brand name Wellbutrin? The generic didn't work right and I didn't have problems with the brand before, but it's been a couple of weeks of ick tryng to switch back. I need to get better. I can't keep ending the day with nausea and panic attacks.

Kristin, Wellbutrin in general seems to make me agitated; whether that translates to full-blown panic attacks, I'm not sure. I know that I have had panic attacks on Wellbutrin, but I can't say if they're related. (Although I never ever had a panic attack on Zoloft.)

Wellbutin doesn't affect serotonin, which might be something that I need, so my doctor added back a v. low dose of Zoloft. We'll see what happens.

Maybe you could do that (or add in a v. low dose of a different SSRI)? Also, w/r/t the nausea, could you try reducing your Wellbutrin dose?

I'm actually going to ask to switch to a new anti-depressant because of something similar. The 'butrin has never made me have a panic attack, but it started making me incredibly irritable.

And before anyone points out that I am, in general, irritable all the time, yes I know. I mean CRAZY irritable, almost uncontrollably so. And I DON'T need an enhancer for super-cranky.

I have an appointment in April with a depression center. In the meantime, I've been doing okay with nothing.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

You went off the Wellbutrin? Goddamn I need to pay more attention.

I quit everything.

That's exactly what it does to me. I *think* the addition of Zoloft is helping, and my unscientific deduction is that I simply need a serotonin boost to make my neurochesmistry act right.

Yeah, about six weeks ago.

Goddamn I need to pay more attention.

Well, babe, you're kinda busy, what with the full-time job, full-time school and full-time mom stuff.

I mean, you're three people without the benefit of being Dr. Manhattan.

Which is good, because the giant blue schlong would be off-putting.

Woke up to a snowplow scraping our street. I hadn't even realized we were due for snow last night. Geeesh. And this was after CJ had a nightmare and came into my room at 3:45 this morning. The boy will sleepwalk when he gets upset like that and it is almost impossible to calm him down and get him back to bed.
