Anti-depressant while on?

[Jacob Creutzfeldt]

Any sides other than higher blood pressure I should be concerned with if I start taking Wellbutrin? Having some anxiety issues and am currently 2 weeks into my cycle.

I think Wellbutrin can tend to increase anxiety. SSRIs like Paxil are usually prescribed for depression with anxiety.

anti-D's are prescribed to buffer the addictive nature of benzos....you know your self better than anyone else. do some self-monitoring and ask the ones you trust if you are better/worse.......no one pill is a cure all for all, everyone is different, and don't experiment according to another success......

Paxil is used to treat depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder and anxiety and on a side note is the worse to kill your sex drive.

For ME.... Effexor is the best for: depression, anxiety, social phobia.

Keep a supple of valium for back up. Wouldn't wish those episodes on anyone.

Effexor makes you feel happy, confident, and no anxiety.

Sex sides can be overcome with some practice, a little cabergoline, and cialis.

Most bodybuilders have social phobia
If we go out were afraid of being asked about steroids, and all the other bullshit.
Sometimes just eazier to avoid it all.

But yet we have no probelm socializing with other bodybuilders in and out of the gym,
I call it the fear of regular people that do not understand what we like to do and why we do it.

Correction, sorry I didn't do this earlier i just got home. Diazapam family is clonapin, zanaz, valium, and those. Forgive as I gave mis-info...... duh what was on my mind.......

don't be surprised if it takes trying a few different drugs to find the one that works

I have been on Wellbutrin before, and switched because it made me feel very much anxiety. And I was prescribed this to quit smoking. To cover my depression I am prescribed Paxil. I take Clonapin for the anxiety effects from the Paxil since all anti-depressants i have taken give me slight anxiety. I took the least of all evils by choosing Paxil as the sex issue comes into play. I get my nut though, just have to.......... anyway same with my wife, except she takes Cymbalta now and is happier than me lol.

Anti-anxiety meds are opiate based.
anti-depression are not usually opiate based.

Must watch opiate based as if used for recreation, when you run out, withdrawls are a bummer and they last (withdrawls) way longer than you think.

terrible info anxiety meds aren't opiate based they are benzos a completely different class of drugs altogether.. opiates are for pain managment.. oxycontin hydrocodien basically all of yur synthetic heroin painkillers very addictive.. benzos are also very addictive there withdraws can be fatal

I've been taking Clonzopan for 7 years at 0.5mg.
Im at the end of a 19 Norandrostendion cycle, I have been fine.
I'm going to be starting a testosterone enanthate cycle now. so, I guess we all learn form these threads.

I know alot of bros take benzos to deal with anxiety on here but as has been made clear they are highly addictive (apparently moreso than heroin). Pregabalin, trade name lyrica, is supposed to be good for generalised anxiety disorder and has less of a sedative effect so may be better for training. It is also non-addictive. As for Wellbutrin, I don't know but don't most anti-ds take weeks to kick in?
