This. Choose sex. |

DP here. I use some decent anxiety/moodiness as well but so far I have made the same choice. I just worry too much about the side effects. I have 3 more years until youngest is in college. I am going to reevaluate then when I don’t have daily responsibility for other people. |
yes, till then don't think about it and do a lot of sex. |
| Good god, Wellbutrin is horrible. One of the worst SSRIs to get off of due to discontinuation syndrome. It took me a year of weaning down my dose to stop, and the brain zaps, dizziness, etc. were the absolute worst. Don’t do Wellbutrin OP. Also - I lost my sex drive due to SSRIs. I was on them for years, and honestly, it never came back fully. This is a real thing, and now being recognized. |
how old are you and how long you have been on SSRIs? any weight issues? |
Wellbutrin is not an SSRI or even an SNRI. It’s an NDRI (norepinephrine/dopamine). I’m sorry it was so horrible for you. A lot of people, myself included, have real benefits from it, including improved mood and weight loss. |
Not the least bit helpful. The OP has a real concern and you simply dismissed her. |
+1 Wellbutrin has worked amazingly well for me. |
| sex because I go insane if it doesn't happen in a few weeks. |
