I was taking Wellbutrin for 3 months, i just went off of it and started Serzone, well Nafasodone, the generic) I have a problem with anxiety, attacks and just chronic uncontrolable worrying, even imagining that something negative will happen. Anyway, the Wellbutrin made me so gloomy and depressed. My hubby bought me a big HappyLigth and that didnt help. before that i took lexapro for 2 years but went off of it, because i think it made me gain weight. I took Serzone before but my doc took me off of it because they were going to take it off of the market.but I found out 2 years late, that it didn't happen, yay I am alot more happy and this is only the first day.

I've taken Wellbutrin, but it disturbed my sleep and didn't help my depr. My husband has taken it for years, and it just makes him a kinder, more gentle guy.
A happy light made a huge difference for me, because the weather affects me tremendously.
I hope Serzone works for you. Personally, it worked, but made me gain weight. But it doesn't do that to everyone, so give it a try.

Wellbuterin is not for any of the problems you are listing. It is an antidepressent. I took this for 3 years when I was younger because I was depressed and had MEGA moodswings. Lexapro is an antidepressent also. I dont understand why he would put you on these if you are having ANXIETY problem. You need an anti anxiety pill! I would find a dr that specializes in this and go to them I am not sure about the Serzone I havent done much research of that. Another thing you must watch being a woman. if you are on birthcontrol you MUST becarefull with antidepressants and anti anxity meds it can make a bad combo and you can have bad side effects like one minute you are fine the next you could chop someones fingers off,, the drs never tell you that part you must ask!

Yes I took Wellbutrin and it did nothing for me at all. It made me worse.

you could always ask for Cloazaril......but you need weekly blood draws to monitor your levels. but it works
