    I am thinking it does because my mom in law and her sister both take it and they like it. I tried it personally but had to stop because it was expensive.

    It depends on your problem and personal chemistry.

    I had a friend whose mother went on Wellbutrin and finished up in the mental hospital. Lexapro had a similar effect on me, but Lexapro has helped my uncle and a friend of mine.

    So you won’t know until you try basically. It might, it might not.

    I know that anxiety can be a side effect of wellbutrin. But, when i started on wellbutrin for depression it also took care of my severe social anxiety and slight general anxiety as well. Im not sure it is a direct thing or if my anxiety was somehow due to my depression. Wont be the same for everyone but that is my encounter

    Ways to handle anxiety;

    Drink a glass of ICE cold water or suck on an ice cube, the cold hits a nerve at the back of the throat and slows your heart down.

    Focus on every small point around you, hinges of a chair, pattern on the walls, anything in minute point. It will help distract you, talk them through to yourself.

    Breathe in for 4 out for 4, breathe deep place your hand on your stomach and when you breathe in push the hand out. for a few minutes.

    Propanalol helps with physical affects of anxiety, stops you shaking and slows your heart down. I am on 40mg prn.

    I endure terribly with anxiety and i have taken also Lorazepam but this is highly addictive.

    i also take Seroquel 50mg when i feel nervous prn.

    I learnt the techniques when i was an inpatient at a private psychiatric hospital.

    I also glue a useful link below.
