Comparing Escitalopram vs Wellbutrin

For Anxiety I’m coming up on my 4th week being on cipralex . I was so afraid and against having to take medication but I’m so glad I tried it . Anyone who is unsure or scared don’t be ! This medication saved me . Before this med I was unable to function and do normal things due to extreme anxiety and panic attacks . I thought I couldn’t go on and I could never feel normal again . Although there is good days and bad days I can really start to see a difference . Some bad side effects but 100% worth it . Give it a chance and don’t give up

For Anxiety This medicine has made a massive difference in my moods. I suffer from anxiety and depression. The first few weeks were tough with some side affects. Nausea, dry mouth, trouble sleeping, hard to urinate. However these all went away and I feel great. Started at 5mg for 1 week and have been on 10mg now for almost 2 months. It helps to see things clearly and I'm not regretting my decision to start this medication.

For Depression Recently I retired from public safety. I should have been happy and content to have a lot of free time. My friends all said I looked rested and better than I had in years. What they did not know is how depressed I was and how much I missed the work and my work friends. Reluctantly my doctor prescribed Bupropion HCL 150 mg for seven days then 300 mg daily in the AM. After the first day, I was already feeling better. I just finished the first two weeks and I'm feeling so much better. Occasionally I still have negative thoughts. Side effects include anxiety and an elevated BP. I'm happy with the results and believe the medication has taken me away from the edge. I will post updates periodically.

For Depression I love this medicine when I'm awake but it gives me the most lucid crazy dreams at night. When I wake up and try to go back to sleep my mind is crazy , thinking crazy scenarios. I wish I could take it for depression and smoking but the night time effect aren't worth it. So disappointed.
