(((((((Monty_Girl))))))Good to see you back on the forums.

Here's my take on Wellbutrin; of all antidepressants, it is the one with the least nasty side effects. I liked it b/c I didn't feel like my head was in the fog all the time; it works subtly; lots of caffeine of course, will make anyone shake, (and that also includes caffeinated sodas & teas)

My soul mate is just starting Wellbutrin right now; the change in his mood has been smooth & positive; it has a decrease in his appetite & sometimes he drinks too much coffee when on it & then he gets wired and "snippy", but it's been a smooth transition w/o nasty side effects. The
Xanax may be good at the beginning & then slowly taper it off & then d/c it.....

As a informed warning to all, stay away from Zoloft, Paxil, Prozac, Effexor & other SSRI's; they are very dangerous to your mental health. Check out www.SSRI-Research@yahoo.com

After taking myself off Effexor, I am still affected by the chemical screw-up caused by SSRI's. (DISCLAIMER: I AM NOT A DOCTOR; only a nurse...You should ALWAYS consult w/ your primary physician about any medications that you are taking)
