I've been doing pretty well, give or take a few episodes of depression, over the past few months. I saw my psych last week and she increased my Wellbutrin. One thing I've noticed is a desire to basically put up a wall between me and everybody I know. I suddenly feel like I can't trust them and I'm being constantly judged by everybody. I know this paranoia is probably part of the depression but it's really bugging me. Now my heart starts racing when people talk to me and I find myself being worried about what they think.

Do any of you experience this from time to time, especially with depression?

........ i tend to isolate a lot with depression. Wellbutrin made me very agitated/anxious/irritable, so I would keep an eye on these symptoms as your dose goes up. I had heart palpitations and my hands wouldn't stop shaking!

Lithium and Depakote did that to me. The side effects were especially annoying with Lithium because I had zero response to it.

It's been bad enough I even withdrew from here. I don't know. I just haven't felt like talking to anyone, not even my husband. It's not a good feeling.
