Out of curiosity, were you always on Wellbutrin with the Trintellix before? If so, I'm wondering if it could be a possible side effect of the Trintellix that the Wellbutrin prevented/treated?
I ask because of something that happened about 8 years ago. I hadn't had those sorts of thoughts in years. Then I went on Effexor and started having those thoughts. Then I switched to Cymbalta and ended up acting on them. I suspected the medication contributed, as did my psychiatrist (though I was under some stress at the time, too). So she switched me.
