Social anxiety..has anybody tried the lexapro/Wellbutrin combo?!


Question: Social anxiety!.!.has anybody tried the lexapro/Wellbutrin combo!?
Answers:
I take half of a 150mg Wellbutrin SR in the morning, and a 5mg Lexapro in the evening - that seems to work very well for me!. No two people respond the same to medication - but it may be worth a shot!. They are two different anti-depressants and they treat different areas of the brain!.

Social anxiety is best treated with low doses of benzodiazapines!.

Valium, Xanax, Alprazolam, Diazepam, Clonopin, They are all virtually the same type of medication!.

Benzodiazepines work differently than antidepressants!. Antidepressants generally take a few weeks to reach peak efficacy, and you cannot stop taking them abruptly!. They have a myriad of side effects as well!. However, with Benzodiazepines, they are fast acting and only require a 1/4 of one milligram to be effective!. It stabilizes your fight or flight response, eliminating panic and anxiety!.

They can be addictive!. I would look into this medication as it is used as needed and is very effective in combatting social anxiety, agorophobia, panic attacks and anxiety disorder!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Umm from personal experience, mixing 2 anti depressants is not a wise choice!. I have been on welbutrin which did not work well for me, it made me way worse than I was!. I am currently on lexapro, and I just started it yesterday!. I cant tell you the effects because it will take me over a month to see a differnece in myself

But anyway, I , and my doctors, would not reccommend 2 anti's at once!. Especially if they are both high doses, that can possibly lead to an overdose!.

Hope I helped, and good luckWww@Answer-Health@Com

I have social anxiety myself!. Bad enough that I had panic attacks in Wal-mart!. I would never recommend taking 2 drugs to treat anything without taking 1 for a period of time to see how it affects you!. I found great relief with 20 mg of Lexapro!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I take zoloft which is similiar to lexapro and I also take Wellbutrin!. I take Wellbutrin in the morning and Zoloft at night!. I haven't had any problems!. Hopefully it will work for you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
