Unmedicated for the first time in a few years and it’s difficult
I have been on Lexapro for the last ~3 years, and I recently tried switching to Wellbutrin because of some side effects (I had heard of adding Wellbutrin but my dr had me switch completely)
It turned out Wellbutrin was not for me, I had some crazy side effects for a few weeks, and I ended up having to quit it. I decided to try getting back to a baseline unmedicated before trying a new one.
It has been rough. Intrusive thoughts have come rushing back in, and it’s on top of being in a pretty stressful schedule right now. I feel like I keep dumping stuff on my partner too when I get overwhelmed, and that stresses me out more.
I’m thinking of getting onto a new SSRI or finding a psychiatrist, but the idea of starting all over sounds awful. But I’m struggling either way.
I know things will be ok but I just hate this feeling
