I have PTSD, not BP, so I don't know if there are specifics to certain meds. Wellbutrin made me jittery and anxious. It was almost like chemically-induced ADHD at higher doses for me. At a low dose, I just had a fine tremor in my hands all the time.

There are a lot of other meds that are commonly used for anxiety. I took Buspar at one point. Right now, I take Xanax XR twice a day to control my anxiety symptoms.... other meds for the depression and other symptoms.

Regular immediate release Xanax has its limitations. The XR keeps a steady level in my system. I am a disaster of constant panic attacks without it.... and yes, for those who wonder, I have tried going off it. It wasn't a big deal, but I returned to major panic/anxiety attacks without it.
