Need care: If your psychiatrist is not available there should be someone covering for them -If worse after the wellbutin added stopping it may help, IF really cannot track your doc down seeing someone new , if you are feeling out of control, Suicidal or getting yourself into trouble the ER would be a good choice as inpatient treatment is likely indicated.

I told my psychiatrist I have been irritable and agitated for no reason ( for months), and she said that's normal and dismissed it. Is that normal?

Depressed but not sure if Prozac making worse. Emotional numbness lack of motivation anhedonia negative thoughts. Wellbutrin caused insomnia, extreme dry mouth, fits of rage. When Prozac was doubled, felt high, agitated. Tired of med merry go round.
