> I ended up taking .5mg of xanax this morning when I was climbing the walls. My daily 3pm meltdown never arrived, much to my relief. I feel, dare I say it, NORMAL??!!!
>
> I felt very "up" on the 300mg of wellbutrin at first, and then it seemed to make me not as depressed as I had been, but still prone to weepy days. I am still having some really bad days with depression, but the side effects of the wellbutrin have been annoying.

> I think I have to remind myself what I went through getting used to effexor. It took a full 12 weeks before the side effects went away. Then we tried to up the dosage to 150mg and I couldn't do it. Hence the WB. We are keeping our collective fingers crossed that the combo will work. I think it takes me a long time to respond to these meds. My main concern has been keeping myself together enough to hold down my job.

> I go for another appointment in a week, and I have been keeping track of the side effects I'm experiencing. I'll let you know how it goes.

> Thanks so much,
> rainydayhi rainyday, from chemist....your xanax fears are unfounded, as confirmed by previous posters. blame the effexor and/or wellbutrin titration for the jitters....all the best, chemist
