Meds update: the Wellbutrin is giving me insomnia at night, though I could nap during the day if I'm not working.

I hope this is temporary (it sounds like it is for many folks). I feel both exhausted and wired.

@evistre Wellbutrin didn't do well for me, gave me bad GI issues. Didn't experience insomnia I don't think because I take Ambien for that anyway.

@Tail legit. GI fine so far but I've heard that too. 💞

I've got melatonin or hydroxyzine I can try tonight, I just haven't tried them with the Wellbutrin yet because searching for drug interactions at 2am spikes my anxiety lol

@evistre lol I bet. The GI stuff for me was really unbearable, how long have you been taking it?

@Tail a week as of today! I've been chugging water and increased fiber to hopefully stave off GI shenanigans

@evistre That's probably it, I've always had a relatively poor diet. I can't afford to eat healthy though sadly. :/

My new meds work just fine but I'm not sure which one replaced Wellbutrin.

@Tail I feel you - most of my fiber comes from oatmeal lol, I get stuff that's got flax in it. It's the only thing I can always eat, unlike salad, which is a choking hazard with my braces.

I'm glad your new meds work for you! I'm really hoping this figures itself out because my motivation is through the roof compared to normal.

@evistre That's good! Keep the momentum. They switched me to Prozac for a bit and that was absolute hell for me for a month but it works for some people.

So strange how it's all hit or miss depending on the person.

@Tail yes indeed! I've been on Prozac for a few years on and off, many different doses, works pretty well to even out my anxiety. I'm still on that
