Amethyst674 Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 I am on Wellbutrin 150 XL and Geodon 80mg. This combo is not helping my depression. I sometimes wonder if the Wellbutrin is actually worsening my depression. I have tried increasing the Wellbutrin but that only made me want to sleep all day. I have tried basically all the SSRI and SNRI but not with Geodon (I have been on the Geodon for 2 weeks) I tried adding Effexor to the combo but I ended up with a severe Panic attack that landed me in the ER. Does anyone take Geodon with an SSRI or SNRI and have good results? I am trying to avoid all the trial and error that usually goes with this and I am going to try to see my PDOC this week.

mikl_pls Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 When I was on Geodon the first time, I was on 200 mg Zoloft with 40 mg Geodon BID. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amethyst674 Posted March 9, 2018 Author Share Posted March 9, 2018 Thanks. I am ditching the wellbutrin. Started on a low dose of Zoloft today. I also increased my Geodon from 80 to 120 because aside from being depressed I am very unstable and find myself needing to take more Xanax than I am supposed to be taking. This has only happened to me when i have tried to taper off AAPs. So I am hoping the increase in dose of the Geodon will help stabilize me. Keeping fingers crossed!

I hope the Zoloft helps you along with the increase in the geodon! Good luck! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
