I am functioning at a higher level than I was, but I have no spark or real enthusiasm.

I am taking Rexulti (which I think helps...) as well as Lamictal, and Wellbutrin. I've been on all of this a while.

My pdoc says Wellbutrin is "activating", which is what I need. But I am on 300 of it and don't want to go up. I wonder if it has worn off and isn't working anymore?

Any substitutions for the Wellbutrin?

Any other suggestions? thanks

I take 450 mg of Wellbutrin and have for about 3 yrs., why don't you want to go up?

Some gal in my support group said she had seizures on 450. I know everyone is different, but thought something new might help. I'm glad the Wellbutrin is working for you.

If it has worked in the past I would look to increase, with your Dr's approval. I would think anything would be better than trying a whole new med..Gook luck to you!!!!!!!!!!!

450 mg has worked fine for me, too. It's key to not drink.

I hope you can find a good replacement, OP.

I honestly understand your hesitation to go up. Seizures can happen at 450mg but I got seizures on just 300mg. Everyone is different. However, I wouldn't be as afraid to increase since you're on Lamictal and (correct me if I'm wrong) but my psychiatrist said that Lamictal is an anti-seizure medication as well as a mood stabilizer. So it might be safe to increase since you're already taking the Lamictal. Good luck!
