BUPROPION vs CITALOPRAM

As I get older, I’m starting to become more aware of the telltale signs that my depression symptoms are getting worse. I’ve noticed that one very specific symptom is that I feel nostalgic about so many things. In a melancholy way, not a fun way. I think it’s my brain’s way of trying to comfort me by

I obviously am not cured but it’s easily my favorite one I’ve been on. I want to know if y’all have ever started a med and were just blown away!! For me, it’s Bupropion (Wellbutrin XL). It helped reduce my depression smoking and my lack of motivation. I’ve genuinely never been happier. ETA: It’s bee

I have been a reader of this sub-reddit for some time now, but it is time for me to post. I am a first generation Asian-American and I have severe depression. I am taking bupropion sr1 at 50mg. The meds work for the most part to the extent that I can function, but at times I feel a huge surge of

So as the title suggests, ive recently come out of a huge stent of depression, about 10 years worth. Because of how long ive been depressed, most of my entire personality was taken over by it. I became withddrawn, self defeating, gave up my activities and hobbies years ago because they were no long

I have been so exhausted lately that I am on the verge of dizziness some days. I get about eight hours of sleep, so I should be well rested enough, but I wake up barely able to get out of bed. It's also really cold right now, which is sapping a lot of what little energy I have left. I am trying not

After four years on a low dose of bupropion XL (100 mg) , I decided to stop taking it. My pharmacist told me to taper off slowly, so for the first 2.5 weeks I took it every 2nd day, and for the next 2.5 weeks I took it every 3rd day. The tapering process went smoothly, so I figured it was safe to st

I’ve been depressed and anxious since I was 10 (turning 22 this year..) and it almost feels like every year, I just lose a piece of myself. Every year, I lose more energy and more hope. I struggle with so much self doubt and self hatred. I wouldn’t kill myself but I often think of how great it would

I'm only 4 foot 10, and gained about 15 pounds in 4 months on mirtazapine. That is something like the equivalent of 6 or 8 dress sizes. I need to stay on the drug because of the severity of my depression and sleep dysfunction, with long covid. Over the course of 2 months I've lost 9 of those pounds,

I graduated a year ago and have applied for constant entry level positions and wake up everyday to new rejection emails. I have no savings. I’ve never had a boyfriend. The only constant companion I’ve had in my life is depression and my citalopram pills. My friends are successful and happy and I lay

I have been taking Citalopram for more than 4 years.

Hi guys, I've been taking Celexa 10mg for nearly a year now and just wanted to share my experience here. I was reading posts on this subreddit religiously before telling my doctor I wanted to try meds, so I thought this could be helpful to anyone in the position I was in then. My symptoms before sta

I posted on here a while back (http://www.reddit.com/r/depression/comments/1jyokh/what_does_it_feel_like_trigger_warning/) about how I felt on a regular basis. That was when I still kept my feelings a secret from almost everyone, including my family. Since then I've spoken with them and started taki

This has been a huge step for me. For at least 2, maybe 3 months, I've allowed my sink to pile up and only cleaned utensils the very moment I needed them. Today I suddenly had the urge to go clean all of it up and wipe down my tabletops. It's incredible. I'm only 2 weeks in but citalopram is letting

some days ago I cut my veins, I’m here cause that didn’t work, Now I have an horrible scar, I’m tired of trying, actually I’m medicated with duloxetina citalopram n risperidona (it’s like we write them in my country) but they aren’t working, my first try was when I was a kid 3-4 it’s strange that a

Doctor thought maybe I was over medicated and discontinued my mood drugs. Just got off citalopram completely. Will start going off wellbutrin next week. I feel wayyyyy better. Not even any suicidal thoughts in the past week. . Who would thought it was the antidepressants causing the depression. Inst

Hey guys, I’m trying to create a public subreddit dedicated to citalopram, and for that I need karma. Please consider helping me by upvoting this post and my post at r/freekarma4u . I know this might be far-fetched, but all I want to do is help people by creating a dedicated place to post their ques
