Hey pug, the p-nurse had me on Wellbutrin and Effexor at the same time too! She was still trying to treat unipolar depression and it just made me a jittery anxious mess, not elated at all. I've read about borderline personality disorder and it's totally not me either. I wonder if the p-nurse secretly thought I was and that's why she had me on all the wrong meds for 13 months! But then, I didn't know I was bipolar either until a couple of months ago. I'm just wondering why Lamictal seems to be doing nothing for my mood swings high and low after over 5 weeks of taking it.

Oh, and Bridgie, hope you get some good advice/meds from your new doc soon. None of us want to be sick. Ignoring it doesn't make it go away. You know that. You'll feel better once you take positive steps toward treatment. And treatment isn't ALL meds.
