Thanks for asking. I've been on wellbutrin for about 6 weeks. I end up having long sessions with my pdoc which is basic therapy anyway but no, I don't see anyone for therapy. I saw my pdoc yesterday. We went over a few options like ECT, additional stimulant drugs, vitamin suppliments, and neuropsychological testing. We decided to do nothing until I see my neurologist to rule out a small stoke. TAI's were almost a way of life for my dad when he was alive. It very well may be that. I was really lucky and was able to get an appt with the neuro tomorrow. I've been in physical therapy for my neck for almost 3 months. It ends Friday. I'm actually rather glad I only have to go back one more time. I lost my car today and was wandering around the parking lot in the wind and snow for about 20 minutes before I went in and asked to use the phone. I live close so I thought maybe I'd walked and just forgot. My son said the car wasn't at home so I knew it was there somewhere. The receptionist who is an angel helped me find it. I found a PT cruiser but it was blue and mine is silver. I kept going back to the blue one as if it would suddenly change and be mine. I felt quite foolish and actually might just cancel. I really don't want to go back. This is really hard. I'm afraid I'll lose my business. I teach piano and musical theater and some private vocal. I really loved my live and want it back. I miss,well, me.

Can I ask how long you have been on wellbutrin and if you are in therapy?
I'm so sorry you're feeling bad. You are not alone.
