Effexor was great, but took the maximum dosage to get results, and caused alot of weight gain. Wellbutrin was awful, made mae feel as if I would jump out of my skin, irritable and anxious. Am doing Celexa now, and so far I think it is OK. Most of the SSRI's. Have you tried Prozac? It is often well tolerated. BUT.. have learned it is trial and error sometimes when it comes to meds. Good luck!
