Re: Escitalopram Induced, looking for some advice.
Update I lowered my Wellbutrin dosage from 300 mg XL to 150 mg XL four weeks ago. Still suffering a bit from the effects of sleep deprivation (memory loss), but insomnia isn't here anymore. Three days ago I re-instated on a SSRI: Zoloft/Sertraline 50 mg. It is far to early to say anything about the ...

Re: Escitalopram Induced, looking for some advice.
Tests aren’t worth much when you have pssd. I got pssd from lexapro as well. Try buspirone and Prozac. It’s been working for me. I’m feeling amazing all the time now. I tried busprione and got awful heart rhythm irregularity, never again. I'm on Bupropion now and I really like it, but I'm indeed co...

Re: Escitalopram Induced, looking for some advice.
Can you elaborate on that DNA test and what you suspect? What is cyp2d6? I recently restarted wellbutrin, but I think it made things worse for me in terms of sensation. Wellbutrin never helped me while I was on Effexor and it doesn't seem to help me now either. I think I will just discontinue it an...

Re: Escitalopram Induced, looking for some advice.
Youre welcome. Please let me know how mirtazipine works out, I am considering switching to that myself. I tried it only a couple of days, 7.5mg and 15mg. Couldnt stand the side effects. Also I read a reply of meso on a topic by radar I believe, in which he states mirtazapine wasn't the way to go. I...

Re: Escitalopram Induced, looking for some advice.
I will def try dopa mucana when Mirtazapine has leveled out, possibly life changing input, thanks a lot. I'm going for a high dose of Mirtazapine, it has less sedation effects and hopefully more therapeutic effects.

Re: Escitalopram Induced, looking for some advice.
Hi thanks for ur reply. I am aware of the risk, but indeed I would like to try out different options. I haven't considered a MAOI, bupropion as a first line treatment in ssri induced sexual dysfunction was an easy choice, also less risk involved. Do u think it will benefit pssd or mainly anxiety and...
