On lexapro. i feel very sluggish and unmotivated. i have anxiety so would it still be okay to ask my pcp for wellbutrin (bupropion)?

How long have you: been on the Lexapo for? Have you given it an adequate trial and time to see if this possible side effect resolves. Wellbutrin (bupropion) is primarily for atypical depressive disorders. lexpro and wellbutrin (bupropion) can be used together for anxiety & depression or mixed depressions. Ask you pcp or psychiatrist about optimizing your meds.
