My pdoc appointment

I’m going to quit my Wellbutrin as of today. My pdoc thinks it’s causing my anxiety.

My benzo Tranxene stays at 4 mg. Clozapine at 25 mg. And Invega at 12 mg.

I hope it works out.

I didn’t think you could quit an antidepressant cold turkey?

She claimed ‘there’s no issue’ in quitting at once.

We’ll see if I get depressed again.

Hoping it works out well man, anxiety is horrible. Stop progress on every little thing sometimes.

Do you drink much tea? Apparently great for anxiety.

It’s not as an AP but for sleep, like low dose seroquel.

I feel like my anxiety has lowered and I’m sleeping deeper. No depression for now, so let’s hope that stays at bay!

Fyi


My anxiety was hectic and completely disappeared during my time on Wellbutrin.

It may be triggering in some especially during the first 2 weeks.

I watched a part of the video. Liked the story about the elephant.

I’m gaining weight without Wellbutrin!

It’s been 3 days without it and I have gained 2.5 kg or 5 lbs. I hope my weight doesn’t skyrocket.

You can’t have gained 2.5kg in 3 days you must be weighing yourself wrong unless you have been eating nonstop it’s probably water
