Back to the drs again!

Well I've went to the drs a few times, did 3 weeks of Lamictal for my mood disorder, 3rd week in I started having too much anxiety and just felt like I was in a fog. Well it's been two weeks now that I've been med free and I feel like I don't know who I am, I'm so fatigued, body aches, walking around like I'm not all here, I'm avoiding friends and family and refuse to do anything that consist of leaving the house. I'm guessing I've thrown myself into a deep depression and I hate it! Going back today to beg to try Wellbutrin again as its the only thing that doesn't make me gain tons of weight, kill my sex drive and make me feel like crap, I tried all other shit with complete failure so I pray Wellbutrin and Xanax for my anxiety can finally be the answer. As of right now I have zero sex drive like I could honestly go the rest of my life without sex (so bad to feel this way) so I hope meds can help cause I feel horrible to keep denying my hubby :(

I hope wellbutrin works for you. Lamictal witdrawl can be awful.  Try to rest and drink plenty of water.

Have you ever tried Serzone? Years ago, when I finally realized my meds were killing my sex life, I told a new dr that I didnt want something that was gonna ruin my sex life anymore and dr said Serzone is made to not do that. I guess it IS possible with any antidepressant, but it actually worked. I dont know, just a possibility for you. Good luck, I know trying different meds and trying to find the right one sucks.

I have to take a combination of wellbutrin/ciprilix/seroquel. Withdrawal are horrible though. I hope you find something that works.

How does that combo work for you? Are they all antidepressants? I have depression (possible bipolar) and major anxiety issues.
