I still get crushing social anxiety on bipolar meds. I had a date recently and my anxiety was thru the roof, i felt turned inside-out, i woke up five hours early that day. But i wasn't on an anti-depressant. I've only been on Wellbutrin two days. I read one post that says anti-depressants help with anxiety as well as depression. Here's hoping! Glad you're feeling better with your meds -- everyone reacts differently.
