How Can Worsening Depression Despite Taking Wellbutrin Be Treated?
I have been taking wellbutrin and Lexapro for 11 years. And I seem to be more depressed these days than I have ever been. Don t know what to do now. My Dr, says just try to decide what you want to do. He reads the Bible and says it is just normal for some people to be and fight depression. Really don t know what to do.
