Anxiety and Depression Support

Bupropion not working as well anymore

I have been taking Bupropion for about a year. When I first started taking it, things were so much better. Within the past two months, it hasn't been working and I find myself going up to extreme anxiety and then hitting some if the lowest depression I've had in nearly a year. I also have a prescription for Citalopram that I kept filling but never tool.

Has anyone made a change from one to the other? Does it seem to help? I don't have a psychiatrist but had previously seem a neurologist for an auto accident where I shortly after had these prescribed.

I saw several medical articles stating that you could actually combine these to some degree and that it was actually more beneficial than mono therapy.

I am grateful for any help.

Thank you for responding. I was just in the U.K. visiting a couple of weeks ago, but am in the United States. I am taking 150 mg of Bupropion and have considered taking something else, I'm addition to, or more of the same to get this depression and anxiety under control.

I want to see someone about this but where I live, therapists are in very short supply and doctors you can trust even more so.

It's agonizing and although I have dealt with this most of my life it seems to get worse the older I get. There are so many things I can't control that keep me trapped, so I have to just deal with it and try not to lose my mind.

Thank you for responding. I thoroughly enjoyed London and Chertsey as well as Windsor. I almost didn't come back home
