Hi everyone,

I've recently started a new combination of meds, including Depakote, Pristiq, and Wellbutrin. Lately I've been feeling very cold, to the point where I will wear a sweater when it is 80 degrees outside. Has anyone else experienced this as a side effect?

Otherwise I'm really not noticing much in the way of side effects so far....

Hi Bpfroggy, I definitely had that side effect on Celexa. I think I also had it with Pristiq, but I was only on Pristiq for 2 weeks. I haven't been on Depakote, so I don't know about that one. Welbutrin I got a rash so wasn't on it long at all so couldn't say.

Although I am now doing TMS and am finding I am coming out of my 10 month depression and do not feel nearly as cold as I used to. So I think it is definitely possible that it is a side effect.

I believe tempurature is regulated by serotonin, so it would make sense.
