I had to go through several meds to find the right combo for me. I'm on Wellbutrin and Cymbalta, and I also take Abilify for my Bipolar 2 diagnosis. They work perfectly for me. Sometimes it's a trial and error until you find the right combo.

I take Wellbutrin and Cymbalta too. It took me 8 years to find the right combination for me!

I'm in Wellbutrin as well I find that it does help me with my depression. I also have bipolar I take vraylar and vybriid as well for that. I'm also on Klonopins 3 times a day for anxiety.

yes I am currently on Wellbutrin as well, but I don't feel a whole lot better yet. Also on klonopins 3 x a day. Maybe I haven't been taking long enough. Been on these medications for about a month. Hopefully I will feel better soon

I currently take Wellbutrin extended release for my depression. That has been the best for me.

I take Citalipran and Wellbutrin extended release for mine and they work really well for me. Unfortunately we all have a slightly different body chemistry so it can be trial and error finding what works best.
